Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 0.25 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a compliant cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to integrate the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, applesauce, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to form a smooth batter.
Fold in the chopped nuts and shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the cake pan in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the oat cake with a drizzle of nut butter or a scattering of fresh fruit for a delightful Whole30 treat.
