Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C and line a small cake tin.
  2. Mix flour, baking powder, sugar and most of the oats; stir in oat milk and olive oil.
  3. Fold in diced apples and scatter remaining oats on top.
  4. Bake for 35–40 minutes, check the centre and cool before cutting.
  5. Before serving, check: Fold wet and dry ingredients together only until combined. Overmixing can make cakes or muffins dense.

Beginner-friendly tips

Read these three practical tips before cooking. Check how the food looks and feels, not just the clock.

  • Preheat the oven before mixing and prepare the tin first so the batter does not sit waiting.
  • Fold wet and dry ingredients together only until combined. Overmixing can make cakes or muffins dense.
  • Baking times vary: a skewer inserted into the centre should come out without wet batter. Bake a few more minutes if needed and cool before slicing.

Tip

Adjust seasonings to taste and check ingredients are fully cooked before serving.
