• 2 cups (500 mL) quick-cooking rolled oats
• 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) whole wheat flour
• 2 tsp (10 mL) ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 tsp (7 mL) baking powder
• 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
• 3/4 cup (175 ml) packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup (250 mL) milk
• 1/4 cup (60 mL) butter, melted
• 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) finely chopped apples (about 1 large)
• Use apples that hold their shape and flavour when baked, such as Empire, Red Prince, Northern Spy, Granny Smith, or Crispin.
• Tip for kids : this recipe is a terrific introduction for kids learning how to bake.
• Teach them to measure dry ingredients properly by spooning them into a dry measuring cup and sweeping off the top.
• For liquid ingredients, pour into a liquid cup and check at eye level.
• For the adventurous : reduce the apples to 1 cup (250 mL) and add 1/2 cup (125 mL) chopped toasted hazelnuts, walnuts or pecans, and 1/3 cup (75 mL) chopped dried cherries.
