Oatmeal Cake


  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbs ground flax, optional
  • 1 tbp cinnamon
  • 1 tbp pumpkin or apple pie spice
  • 1 cup milk - low fat dairy, rice milk, or soymilk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 granny smith apple, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1 banana, diced (as best you can, it will smoosh if ripe)
  • 1/2 cup craisins
  • 1/2 cup apple sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 1 tbp honey
  • 1 tbp butter, optional, for taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the dry ingredients (first six ingredients) together in a large mixing bowl. Then, add the rest of the ingredients and mix together.

Grease a 9X9 glass baking dish and pour mixture into it. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

When slightly cool, cut into squares. Store leftovers in the refrigerator, warming individual portions in the microwave.

~**ENJOY!!!**~

**This is great as a snack, breakfast, or even a dessert... and best of all it's healthy while still tasting great!!**
