- A few drops of vanilla extract
- Cranberries (to taste)
- Nuts (for decoration, to taste)
Preparation
Mixing it Up
- Grinding Oat Flakes: Begin by adding oat flakes and a spoonful of baking powder into an electric mixer. Pulse until the oat flakes are finely chopped, but be cautious not to overdo it.
Apple Puree: Peel and core the apples, then chop them into pieces. Using a food processor, blitz the apples until they form a smooth puree.
Flavor Infusion: Transfer the apple puree into a large bowl and add a dash of cinnamon and a few drops of vanilla extract. Give it a good mix with a spatula until well combined.
Baking Brilliance
Mixing it Together: Crack the eggs into the bowl with the apple mixture and whisk until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Incorporating Oat Flour: Gradually add the ground oat flakes into the bowl, mixing well with a spatula until fully incorporated.
Preparing the Pan: Line an 18-centimeter diameter mold with baking paper and pour the batter into it, ensuring an even layer.
Adding Finishing Touches: Sprinkle a handful of cranberries and chopped nuts on top of the batter, gently pressing them into the mixture.
Final Flourish
Baking Bliss: Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake the apple pie for approximately three-quarters of an hour, or until golden brown and fragrant.
Sweet Sensations: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly. Finish it off with a dusting of icing sugar for that perfect, Instagram-worthy touch.
