Ingredients
1 cup oatmeal (quick oats or rolled oats)
2 apples, grated or finely chopped
2 eggs
150g plain yogurt (about ⅔ cup)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Pinch of salt
Optional: raisins, chopped nuts, or chia seeds
Instructions
Prepare the apples by washing, peeling if desired, and grating or finely chopping them. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Add yogurt, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until fully combined.
Fold in the grated apples along with any optional ingredients like nuts or raisins.
Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb moisture and soften.
Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and bake at 175°C (350°F) for 25–30 minutes until golden and set.
Alternatively, cook small portions in a pan to make pancakes or pour into muffin molds and bake.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
How to Make
Start by choosing high-quality oats for the best texture and nutritional value. Rolled oats provide a slightly chewier consistency, while quick oats create a softer result.
Use fresh apples for natural sweetness, reducing the need for added sugar. Grating helps distribute flavor evenly throughout the batter.
The resting step is essential as it improves texture and ensures the oats fully hydrate, creating a soft, cake-like consistency.
Baking gives a firm, sliceable texture, while pan-cooking produces soft, fluffy pancakes depending on your preference.
Variations
Replace apples with mashed bananas for a sweeter texture and a natural sugar alternative.
Use pears for a milder flavor and extra moisture.
Add dark chocolate chips for a healthier dessert-style version while keeping it relatively low in sugar.
Mix in protein powder to create a high-protein breakfast option.
Try dairy-free yogurt for a gluten-free and dairy-free variation.
