Ingredients:
1 cup (130 g) oatmeal
1 cup (250 ml) kefir
2 eggs
2 tablespoons (50 g) honey or syrup
2 medium carrots (about 300 g), finely grated
2 medium apples (about 320 g), grated
Walnuts (optional, for topping or mixing in)
Preparation Time:
Total Time: 55 minutes (includes baking time)
Directions:
Prepare the Oatmeal and Kefir:
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of oatmeal with 1 cup of kefir. Stir well and let sit for 5 minutes to allow the oatmeal to soak and soften.
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, beat 2 eggs until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons of honey or syrup and mix until fully combined.
Add the Carrots and Apples:
Grate the carrots and apples using a fine grater. Add the grated fruits and vegetables to the egg mixture and stir until well mixed.
Combine All Ingredients:
Add the oatmeal-kefir mixture to the egg, carrot, and apple mixture. Stir until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Mix in chopped walnuts if desired.
Prepare for Baking:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and spread it evenly.
Bake the Cake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Serving:
Let the cake cool slightly in the baking dish before cutting it into squares or slices. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with additional honey, syrup, or walnuts.
