I’ve been making these oatmeal cakes for a couple of days. I just ate one with some blackberries and it was a delicious combination.
1 cup rolled oats
½ cup unsweetened apple sauce
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tbs xylitol
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp cinnamon
Optional: small handful of raisins and/or frozen/fresh blueberries
3 tbs PB2
1 tsp cacao powder
1 tsp xylitol (or more/less depending on your sweetness preferences)
beet powder, optional (just makes the peanut butter a pink colour)
1 tbs of water at a time, until it's the desired consistency.
Preheat oven to 375F.
In a medium-sized bowl, add in all of the Oatmeal Cake ingredients and mix well. Get out two ramekins and evenly distribute the mixture between then. Place on a greased baking sheet, bake for half an hour. They will firm up a little bit once they are removed from the oven, so as long as there aren't any wet areas, they should be good to come out.
Allow to cool for a few minutes (this makes them easier to pop out of the ramekins) while you prepare the Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting. Simply mix the ingredients in a small bowl and then spread onto your oatmeal cakes. Add some berries / fresh chopped fruit and enjoy! You can keep extras in the fridge for a couple of days.
