One of the reasons we uses fats in cooking is because it makes food taste delicious.
Fat free baking is not the most easiest of tasks in the kitchen but when done correctly fat free baking can taste fantastic.
My fat free oat cakes are so delicious that you will not be able to put them down.
I use old gala apples, raisins, sultanas, clementines and oats for this tasty healthy treat.
Instead of using fat in this oat cake recipe I blend and strain the clementines then simmer them with agave syrup for a short time.
These oaty fat free vegan treats are such a delight to eat and really simple to bake.
You would never believe that these delicious oat cakes contained no fat because the taste is so very good.
When you bite into one of my oat cakes you will sink your teeth into wholesome cooked oats, sweet soft apples and juicy raisins and sultanas. The whole mixture of textures is amazing to taste and the flavours go perfectly with one another.

Cheers,

oh my gosh- these seriously look INCREDIBLE! Please send me one ;) I am jealous of your fam getting to eat all of these healthy treats!
The way you described how it taste makes me want to have them.
Looks so yumm.
These look really moist and delicious, not to mention healthy!
These sounds so wonderful and healthy too.
Those look so good! Nice and golden brown on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. Bookmarked
Wow! That's very nice step by step instructions and pictures. I love the cookies and the way u explained it.
now that's a healthy on-the-go snack and breakfast. I love eating healthy for breakfast, it really does set the tone for the day. Good idea here.
They look yummy, and so healthy.
I love treats like these and have made something similar, but I think yours totally beat mine. I need to make these. I cannot find clementines here, so can I just substitute an orange? You describe everything perfectly, Jeena!
Thank you everyone. :-)
Bridgett you can use orange if you like the taste of orange. I love the fruitiness of clementines, make sure it is a sweet juicy orange. I'd love to hear how it goes. :-)
Hi Jeena,
I'd like to try this but I can't find Agave syrup here. Can I use other syrup instead? Do you have any good suggestion?
Thank you!
Hi Pjeobe,
Yes you can use golden syrup, syrup or even maple syrup if you like.
Jeena. :-)
I don't know if my question went through so if I have asked it twice please disregard this. Can you use steel cut oats (either something like McCann's classic which take an hour to make or quick & easy which take 10 minutes)instead of rolled oats?
Thanks so much
Natasha
Hi Natasha,
You can use any oats that you can buy from the supermarket, quick oats will work fine.
I must say though I have never cooked wih oats that take an hour to cook so I can not really say if that would work or not.
I know this is quite old... but I was wondering, is it possible to use another fruit puree/juice? And instead of seeping the raisins in some tea-bag, is it possible to use dried cranberries?
Sorry, I'm kind of on a very tight budget, and would love to make these oatcakes :)
Hi!
I make an oatcake with 2 cups quick oats, 1/2 cup ground sesame seeds, 3/4 cup oat flour, 3 tbls olive oil, a tsp. cinnamon,1/2 tsp nutmeg & 1/2 cup date pieces. Moisten with apple juice until it holds together and roll into a log and flatten the ends. You can roll it in sesame seeds or coconut flakes if you like. Freeze it for an hour or two to firm up & then slice it into 1/2 " rounds.Butter a cookie sheet & Bake at 325 for 35 minutes or until golden brown. Delicious sugar & wheat free treats!
