Dried Mulberry Oat Cake
A lightly sweet, tender oat-flour cake made with milk-puréed dried mulberries and finished with dark chocolate chips.
Instructions
-
Step 1
Heat the oven to 175°C. Line the base and sides of a 20 cm round cake pan with baking parchment.
-
Step 2
Blend the milk and dried mulberries until the fruit is finely broken down and the mixture resembles a thick purée.
-
Step 3
Add the eggs to the mulberry mixture and blend briefly, just until evenly combined.
-
Step 4
Whisk the oat flour, baking powder, and vanillin together in a mixing bowl until evenly distributed.
-
Step 5
Pour the mulberry mixture into the dry mixture and fold until no dry flour remains.
-
Step 6
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, level the surface, and scatter the dark chocolate evenly over the top.
-
Step 7
Bake at 175°C for 30–35 minutes, until the center springs back lightly and a wooden skewer inserted away from the chocolate comes out without wet batter.
-
Step 8
Cool the cake in its pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack. Cool for at least 15 minutes more before cutting into 8 slices.
