Apple, Raisin and Oat Cakes

An apple a day keeps the Doctor away right?!

So, lets throw it into a cake form along with energy giving oats and some juicy raisins and you’ve got yourself another grab and go snack. I know that the list of ingredients seems like a lot but honestly you’ll probably have most of them lurking about the kitchen!

Ingredients:

• 1 egg
• ½ a teaspoon of ground or grated nutmeg
• 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
• ½ a cup of raisins
• 2 chopped up red apples (skins on)
• ¾ cup of almond or ordinary milk
• ½ cup/115g of melted butter OR coconut oil
• 1 cup of white flour
• 1 cup of porridge oats
• 4 tablespoons of brown OR coconut sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder

Method:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180ºC.
2. Combine the flour, baking powder, dried cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, oats and salt in a large mixing bowl.
3. Whisk the egg, milk and melted butter together in a separate bowl.
4. Then, start adding the wet ingredients to the dry mixture – combining everything as you go with a wooden spoon or spatula.
5. Lastly, fold in the chopped apples and raisins and then divide the mix between 12 cupcake cakes and bake for about 20-25 minutes – oat so easy right!
