Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup oats
- 2 carrots, shredded
- 1/4 cup butter, room temperature
Sweetener and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Leavening Agent:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Whisk eggs and honey in a mixing bowl until the mixture becomes smooth and slightly frothy.
- Incorporate shredded carrots into the egg and honey blend, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Add rolled oats to the bowl, stirring gently to create a uniform consistency.
- Sprinkle baking soda and ground cinnamon over the mixture, mixing thoroughly to prevent any dry ingredient clumps.
- Melt butter and pour into the batter, blending carefully to maintain a cohesive texture.
- Stir in vanilla extract, which will enhance the overall flavor profile of the cake.
- Grease a baking dish thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking during baking.
- Transfer the complete batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Place the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes.
- Check cake doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center – it should emerge clean and dry.
- Remove from oven and allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for smoother mixing and better cake texture.
- Opt for old-fashioned rolled oats instead of quick oats to maintain a heartier consistency.
- Consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch and nutty flavor.
- Swap honey with maple syrup for a different natural sweetness profile if desired.
