BREAKFAST CAKE RECIPE
(makes 8 pieces)
Ingredients:
1 cup processed oats, or oat flour (100g)
1/2 cup spelt or whole wheat flour (65g)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
3 smaller apples
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/3 cup Greek yogurt (85g)
1/4 cup maple syrup, honey or agave (60ml)
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce (85g)
3 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
NUTRITIONAL INFO (per piece):
170 calories, fat 3.1g, carb 30g, protein 6.5g
Preparation:
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
Peel and core the apples. Slice them in half, then score them with a knife all the way around and cut them into quarters. Toss the apple slices in lemon juice to prevent browning.
In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, spelt or whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In another bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, your preferred sweetener (maple syrup, agave, or honey), applesauce, and vanilla extract.
Mix in the large eggs one at a time, ensuring they are fully incorporated into the wet mixture.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring just until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into a lined baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Give the pan a gentle shake to ensure the batter is evenly distributed. Now, spread the apple quarters evenly over the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until the cake turns a beautiful golden brown.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice it into 8 equal pieces and serve as it is, or with a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
Enjoy this healthier German apple cake!
I was actually clicking the like button over and over again.
I prepared the batter the night before and popped it in the fridge with baking instructions.
It turned out great! My husband could easily bake it while I was occupied nursing our little baby. The cake was a hit! Even my toddlers gobbled it all up :)
Thanks for another wonderful recipe!
I tried this apple cake and it is really delicious and very easy to do. A big tks go to our chef.
Going to have to try this one! Nice ideas! Thank you!
Looks like another winner from our favorite UA-cam chef. Can't wait to try this, but I don't have a spring-form pan, so maybe a pie plate to keep it round? Or a metal square pan? My creations never look as good as Sasha's but they always taste great and never disappoint. Thanks so much, Sasha, for another creative breakfast option! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🥰
Hi Lauren! So glad you like this one, and that's exactly what matters when it comes to healthy food, its delicious taste. Don't worry about the springform pan, simple 8-inch square pan will do the work too, and if you don't care about the presentation you can chop the apples and stir into the batter too. Thanks for all of your amazing stars of support! Sending back love!
Yayyy just in time for autumn baking!
Love this time of the year! Happy baking!
Just what I needed at this moment ❤
Great! Glad about the timing!
It's a perfect day for this recipe, I have some apples on the counter that are begging to be eaten!
That's right, it's a great way to use up some apples.

Your channel is absolutely amazing. I love your ideas. I hope one day you write a book or something so people can really understand your philosophy. I think your ideas are really key to the current obesity epidemic.

You too Sasha 😊@@HowToCookSmarter

@@HowToCookSmarter thank you.
Let them eat cake. -MarieA
Ooh. Now only does it look so tasty Ill bet baking this will make my place smell fantastic. 😍😍 👏 Thanks Sasha. This weekend for the football 🏈 game.
Hi Michele! You're right, apples and cinnamon smell just wonderful, actually smell of the baked goodies is one of the things I love this season so much... apples, pumpkin, spices and beautiful, sunny fall days, it feels just great. Enjoy your weekend!
@@HowToCookSmarter You also Sasha. Have a blessed weekend.
This looks really good! I think you should try making some kind of healthy “baklava” or another Turkish sweet recipe.
Keep going Sasha!
Love the idea of trying to make some Turkish dessert healthier and lower in sugar.
Hi Sasha, is it possible if you could create a dessert recipe with tofu? It can serve as a combiner when blended, and there’s more protein than flour.
Hi! Love the idea! Will do my research on this topic, hope I'll come up with something delicious worth sharing.
@@HowToCookSmarter Thank you so much!
I’m gluten intolerant. What can I replace spelt flour with? Thanks!
You can add more oat flour and 1-2 tbsp cornstach just to improve the texture.
@@HowToCookSmarter Thank you so much!
Mmm...looks delicious
Is it possible to bake this in airfryer?
If yes then can u give me the time and temp?
Sure, you can make this in your air-fryer too, I would go with a bit lower temperature, like 320F, and bake for about half an hour.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Just a quick attention notice. Now apples are healthy, in and out. We got the natural sugar and the water inside. But unfortunately when you remove the peels, there is really no benefit of fiber, but at the end of the day Apples are apples, and this cake is def more of a healthier alternative to others packed with 200-400g sugar lmao.
Thanks for bringing this up!
I'm just wondering are there any recipes that we can use just oat flour and not spelt/whole wheat flour? I have a big bag of rolled oats that I blend to make oat flour so it's more cost effective too :)
In most of my recipes I use spelt/whole wheat flour just to improve the final texture of the baked goods, but if you have only oats then go with adding more oats, and just a tiny amount of cornstarch 1-2 tbsp.
To get those rivets on the apples did you just use a knife to make the slither cuts?
Yes, you just score the apples with a knife, but not actually cutting them through.
Americans: _"Start your day off right.... with cake"_
Figures
Can i replace applesauce with something else?
Extra yoghurt should work if you don’t have apple purée or mashed banana
@@virginia2112 thanks you
