👨‍🍳 How to Make It (Step-by-step)

Step 1: Soak the oatsPlace oats in a bowl and pour over the boiling water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.💡Tip: This step makes the cake extra moist and improves digestibility.

Step 2: Mix the wet ingredientsAdd the melted butter, yogurt, and eggs to the soaked oats and stir until smooth.💡Secret: Make sure the butter is slightly cooled so it doesn’t cook the eggs.

Step 3: Add sweetnessIncorporate sugar and vanilla sugar into the batter.💡Tip: You can use honey or maple syrup instead for a natural sweetener.

Step 4: Grate the applePeel and grate the apple, then fold it into the mixture.💡Hack: No need to squeeze the juice — it adds moisture and natural sweetness.

Step 5: Add the extrasStir in the raisins and chopped walnuts.💡Option: Use frozen berries or sunflower seeds for variety.

Step 6: Final riseSprinkle in baking powder and mix well to ensure even rising.💡Tip: Don’t overmix — just enough to blend.

Step 7: Prepare the panGrease a 15×20 cm (6×8 in) pan with a bit of butter or line with parchment paper.💡Secret: A metal pan gives crispier edges; glass makes it softer.

Step 8: Pour and levelPour the batter into the prepared pan and level the top.💡Hack: Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.

Step 9: BakeBake at 180°C (350°F) for 40–50 minutes or until golden and set.💡Tip: Test with a toothpick — it should come out clean.

Step 10: Cool and serveLet the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then slice and enjoy.💡Secret: Tastes even better the next day when flavours deepen.
