Ingredients:
• 1 cup oatmeal
• 2 apples, peeled and chopped
• 2 eggs
• 150g (5.3 oz) plain yogurt (preferably unsweetened)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• A pinch of cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)
• A pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven:
• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a small baking dish (about 8×8 inches) or line it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the apples:
• Peel and chop the apples into small cubes. You can set them aside for a moment.
3. Mix the wet ingredients:
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and yogurt until smooth and well combined.
4. Combine the dry ingredients:
• Add the oatmeal, baking powder, and cinnamon (if using) into the bowl with the egg and yogurt mixture. Stir everything together until well mixed. If you like a little more sweetness, you can add a natural sweetener like stevia, but it’s optional since the apples provide natural sweetness.
5. Add the apples:
• Gently fold the chopped apples into the mixture.
6. Bake the mixture:
• Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden and the oatmeal is set and cooked through (a toothpick inserted should come out clean).
7. Cool and serve:
• Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
