Ingredients:

    • 1 cup oats
      • 2 apples, grated
      • 100 ml water
      • 1 banana, mashed
    • 2 eggs
    • 80g cranberries
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
      • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
      • Butter for greasing the pan

      Instructions:

        1. Preheat the Oven:
          • Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F).
      1. Prepare the Batter:
          • In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, grated apples, water, mashed banana, and eggs. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

         

          • Add the cranberries, baking powder, and cinnamon to the mixture. Stir until everything is well combined.
      2. Prepare the Pan:
            • Grease a baking dish with butter to prevent the cake from sticking.

         

        • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
      3. Bake the Cake:
            • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

         

      4. Cool and Serve:
            • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
          • Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
