Whole Wheat Oatmeal Plumcake Recipe
Category: Desserts
Servings: 6
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 50 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

Ingredient Amount
Oat Drink 180g
Oats (rolled oats) 60g
Butter (softened) 150g
Egg Yolks 35g
Baking Powder 10g
Brown Sugar 110g
Whole Wheat Flour 200g
Oats (for topping) To taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Butter and Sugar Mixture: Begin by placing the softened butter into a large mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter for about 1 minute until it becomes light and fluffy.

  2. Add Sugar and Egg Yolk: Gradually add the brown sugar to the butter, continuing to mix. Once combined, add the egg yolk and continue beating until smooth.

  3. Incorporate Oat Drink: Pour in the oat drink and mix until fully combined with the butter-sugar mixture.

  4. Add the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, oats, and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently to combine until a smooth batter forms.

  5. Prepare the Baking Pan: Grease and flour a 20×11 cm loaf pan to ensure easy removal after baking. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon.

  6. Add the Final Touch: Lightly score the top of the batter with a knife dipped in melted butter. This gives the plumcake a characteristic center crack as it bakes. Sprinkle the remaining oats on top for added texture and flavor.

  7. Bake the Plumcake: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) in static mode (no fan). Bake the plumcake for approximately 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the plumcake from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving. This ensures the perfect texture and flavor.
