Prep time: 15 Mins
Cook time: 50 Mins
Yields: One bundt pan
A healthy cake recipe loaded with anti-oxidant rich fresh blueberries, quick cooking oats and walnuts.
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 and 1/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Oats (quick cooking)
- 2 cups Fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 cup Chopped Walnuts (optional)
- For Dusting Confectioners sugar
- 1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 1/2 cup Canola Oil (you could use vegetable oil too)
- 1 tablespoon Vinegar
- Preheat oven to 375F/190C for 15 minutes. Lightly grease and flour a bundt pan.
- In a large bowl whisk together the wet ingredients and the brown sugar.
- In another bowl combine together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add this to the wet ingredients gradually until blended.
- Fold in the oats, blueberries and walnuts.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake it for 45-50 minutes. Mine was done around 42 minutes itself. I tested for doneness using a tooth pick and also saw the cake pulling out from the sides of the pan.
- Leave the pan undisturbed for 10 minutes and slowly invert it on a wire cooling rack to cool it down completely.
- Dust the cake with confectioner's sugar.
- As mentioned above I would use a different pan when I try this recipe the next time. I would either use a tube pan as mentioned in the original recipe or a 13x9 inch pan. If using a 13x9 inch pan the baking time would be somewhere around 25-30 minutes. So please keep this in mind if you are using a different pan size.
- I would also increase the quantity of sugar to 1 and 1/3 cups or 1 and 1/2 cups.
- If using frozen blueberries do not thaw it otherwise the color will start bleeding and you will have a blue cake.
- I used cinnamon flavored applesauce so I did not add the cinnamon mentioned in the recipe.
