How To Make Oat Flour Cake
Oat flour is made from blended oats into a thin flour-like texture. It doesn’t work the same as all-purpose flour; it’s higher in protein and fiber and won’t make cakes as fluffy.
But it’s a great healthy option to make cakes or brownies like my breakfast brownies.

- First, in a large bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients (bilde 1): oat flour, cornstarch, coconut sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar (bilde 2). This is your vegan ‘buttermilk’. Set aside.

- Peel, and mash the ripe bananas on a plate or chopping board (bilde 3).
- Pack the mashed banana in a measuring cup and measure the amount required by the recipe. Place the mashed banana in another large mixing bowl (bilde 4).

- Add the vegan buttermilk made before to the bowl with the mashed bananas, oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and plant-based milk of choice (bilde 5).
- Whisk to combine the wet ingredients very well together.
- Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients.
- Switch to a silicone spatula, and stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients (bilde 6). Stir until the batter is consistent.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line the bottom of a cake pan with parchment paper and oil the sides and bottom with cooking spray.
- Fill the cake pan with the gluten-free oat flour cake batter.
- Bake the cake in the center rack of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in its middle comes out clean.
- Cool completely at room temperature on a wire rack before frosting or slicing.
dekorere
You can use this cake for a layer cake or serve it as a single-layer cake. Decorate the top of the cake with some vanilla vegan frosting or vegansk kokoskremfrosting. Then, add slices of fresh banana, chopped nuts like pecans and walnuts, and a drizzle of peanut butter caramel.

Allergibytter
- Olje – You can’t make this cake oil-free, or the texture doesn’t come out right. But, if preferred, you can swap the oil for melted vegan butter, like Earth Balance.
- Gluten-Free – Make sure you prepare the oat flour using a gluten-free certified oat brand.
- Nøttefri – Use soy milk or oat milk to avoid nuts in almond milk.
Lagringsinstruksjoner
- Kjøleskap – Place the cake in a cake box in the refrigerator and keep it for up to 4 days.
- Fryseboks – Freeze in an airtight box, sliced or whole, for up to one month. Thaw in the fridge the day before.
Variasjoner
You can add some ingredients to the cake batter to add flavor and texture. In the end, stir in 1/2 cup of :
- Mørk sjokoladebiter
- blåbær
- Usøtet revet kokosnøtt
- Chocolate cake – stir in 1/4 cup cocoa powder in the batter, along with the dry ingredients. Or try my vegan birthday cake recipe for a chocolate oat flour cake, without banana or oil
- Hakkede valnøtter eller pekannøtter
Ofte Stilte Spørsmål
Here my answers to your most common questions about baking cake with oat flour.
Yes, oat flour is a healthy flour to make cakes. However, since it’s higher in fiber and proteins, the amount of liquid in the recipe won’t be the same as for a regular cake.
You usually need more liquid and a binder to avoid a fragile, crumbly oat cake.
This doesn’t always work, especially if your cake recipe is vegan and egg-free. You may need to add an egg replacer to bind the ingredients together.
Generally, 1 cup of all-purpose flour equals 1 1/4 cups of oat flour and more binder like a flax egg, cornstarch, or fruit puree.
All-purpose flour is poor in fiber, proteins, and nutrients. Oat flour is a better choice if you are after a healthy cake recipe that keeps you full.

Hallo,
My cake did not rise very much. I used coconut milk and extra honey , instant of sugar.
You can’t swap crystal sweetener for liquid sweeteners, it makes the crumb heavy. Same for the choice of milk, the higher in fat, the gummier, denser the cake will be.
Hi what can you use instead of coconut sugar?
Any granulated sweeteners like sugar, brown sugar, demerara sugar.
is there any substitute for maple syrup? in my country it’s uncommon to use it as baking ingredients
can I use honey?
Absolutely, any liquid sweetener work. Honey is thicker and the cake will be a bit denser that’s all.
Hi there, just wondering about the vegan buttermilk? it is mentioned once but not in ingredients?
In step 3, when I say stir non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar, I should have asked, this is your vegan buttermilk! I actually updated the recipe card now, thanks to you, so now it’s clear and easy for you to bake the cake!
Do you have recommendations for an oil free version?
I didn’t try yet but I think it will be make the cake very fragile.
I made this with apple sauce as I didn’t have bananas. It was amazing, so moist and tasty. My partner, who is not vegan, ate most of it. Will definitely make again. Any suggestions to reducing the amount of coconut oil without affecting the outcome too much?
Thanks for commenting about the banana free version. please could you tell me how much apple sauce you used. thank you
You can use other vegetable oils, but I haven’t yet found a reliable way to completely remove oil.
Hei Carine,
What size cake pan should I use?
Takk!
It works fine in an 8-inch pan.
Ich habe heute den Kuchen ohne Banane zubereitet, die Bananen habe ich gegen weiße Süßkartoffel ausgetauscht, alle waren begeistert.
Das Rezept klappt ganz bestimmt auch mit Kabocha anstelle von Bananen.
