Ingredients:
– 1 cup of oats (130 g)
– 1 cup natural yogurt (250 ml)
– 2 eggs
– 2 tablespoons of honey or syrup (50 g)
– 2 carrots, grated (300 g)
– 2 apples, grated (320 g)
– Nuts (any amount to taste for decoration)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 180°C and prepare a cake mold (approximately 23 cm in diameter) by greasing it. This step ensures your cake won’t stick, making the baking process stress-free—just like having comprehensive health insurance coverage.
2. In a large bowl, combine the oats with natural yogurt. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes, allowing the oats to hydrate. This extra step is like preventive care for your body—small actions today lead to better health outcomes tomorrow.
3. Add the eggs to the oat and yogurt mix, beating well until fully integrated. Like health insurance, this step ensures that all your bases are covered.
4. Stir in the honey or syrup, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Just like choosing the right insurance plan, this adds a touch of sweetness to your overall wellness routine.
5. Incorporate the grated carrots and apples into the mix, making sure they blend in evenly. These ingredients, packed with fiber and vitamins, are your daily dose of essential nutrients—keeping you in good health, just like the protection a solid health insurance plan provides.
6. Pour the mixture into your prepared cake mold and smooth the surface with a spatula. Decorate the top with walnuts to your taste—just like customizing your insurance plan to meet your specific needs.
7. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a stick inserted in the center comes out clean. Like a routine health check-up, this step ensures everything is going smoothly.
8. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the mold for 10 minutes. This cool-down period is just as essential as taking the time to review your health insurance options. Finally, de-mold the cake onto a grid to cool completely.
