Preheat and Prep: Get your oven ready by preheating it to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease your 18 cm casserole dish with a touch of olive oil for easy removal later.

Oat & Baking Powder Party: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped oats (using your blender for a finer texture) and baking powder. This forms the base for our healthy cake.

Fruity Fun: Time to add all the good stuff! Toss in the grated carrot, chopped dried apricots, rinsed raisins, and grated apple. Mix everything well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.

Eggcellent Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs until light and fluffy. Then, add the stevia (or your chosen sweetener), vanilla extract, and olive oil. Whisk again until well combined.

The Big Mix: Pour the wet egg mixture into the dry oat mixture and fold it in gently with a spatula until everything is fully incorporated. You want a nice, even batter.

Bake it Happen! Pour the batter into your greased casserole dish and spread it out evenly. Let it bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes. Keep an eye on it! The top should turn a beautiful golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Cool Comfort: Once the baking time is up, take the casserole out of the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. This gives it time to set properly.
