Apple Pie Oatmeal Breakfast Cake

Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned oats

½ cup unsweetened applesauce

2 flax “eggs” (mix 2 tbsp ground flax seed into 6 tbsp room temp water and let it sit for 5 minutes)

2 tbsp maple syrup

¼ cup almond milk

2 tsp baking powder

2 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ tsp salt

3 scoops Creamy Vanilla Else 

1 cup peeled apple, chopped

Additional apple slices, for topping

2 tbsp powdered sugar, for glaze, optional

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350℉. Grease an 8-inch round or square cake pan with cooking spray.
2. Place oats, applesauce, flax “eggs”, maple syrup, almond milk, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and Else in the jar of a high-speed blender. Blend on medium-high speed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute or until oats are blended and a batter forms.
3. Transfer batter to a medium mixing bowl and stir in chopped apple pieces.
4. Pour batter into the greased cake pan. Top with additional apple slices, if desired.
5. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
6. Let the cake cool for 15 minutes before glazing. To make a glaze, place powdered sugar in a small bowl and add 1 teaspoon of water or almond milk at a time until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle across the top of the cake and serve. Leftovers can be wrapped and kept at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
