Oats Apple Cake

Whenever I go to library I use to read cookery magazines by the way I came across this recipe gave a try. I usually do apple cake but its bit different with oats healthy too. I tried without frosting it was good with less sugar. To attract my kids added frosting.

 

Ingredients:

Applesauce	1 ¾ cup
Quick oats	1 cup
Butter (room temperature)	½ cup
Brown sugar	¾ cup
Egg	1
All purpose flour	1 ½ cup
Baking soda	1 tsp
Cinnamon powder	1 tsp
Salt	½ tsp
Nutmeg powder	½ tsp
Frosting:
Confectioners sugar	2 cups
Butter softened	2 Tbsp
Milk	2 Tbsp
Vanilla extract	½ tsp

 

Directions:

1. In a pan, bring applesauce to slow boil, stir in oats; remove from heat and allow it to rest for 20 minutes.
2. In another bowl, beat butter and brown sugar until creamy. Add egg; beat well. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg; add to the creamy mixture alternatively add applesauce mixture.
3. Pour into a greased baking pan, bake in a 350ºF preheated oven for 40- 45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
4. For frosting, combine all the ingredients; beat until smooth. Frost the cooled cake.

 

 

Tips:

Frosting measurement is for whole cake. If you like to have without frosting add ¼ cup more sugar.
