Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g beetroot, cooked and grated
- 100 g wholemeal flour
- 100 g rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder
- 80 ml honey
- 50 ml unsweetened apple sauce
- 100 ml low-fat milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20cm x 20cm (8 inch x 8 inch) baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the wholemeal flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and cinnamon powder.
In another bowl, whisk together the honey, unsweetened apple sauce, low-fat milk, vanilla extract, and egg whites until well combined.
Add the grated beetroot and lemon zest to the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the slices dense.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the beetroot slice to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, cut into slices and serve. Enjoy your healthy, low-fat beetroot slice!
