Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup rolled oats
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped dates
1/2 cup walnuts
2 tablespoons margarine
1 1/4 cups icing sugar (sifted)
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon strong coffee, cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350F & prepare your baking dish (I like using a bundt pan for the shape, but a 9" square baking pan is what's recommended).
  • In a small bowl, combine oats and boiling water; let stand until cool (note: this takes a while. You might want to combine the oats and water and brew the coffee, take a break and come back to do the rest to allow time for the liquids to cool).
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together margarine and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in vanilla, oat mixture and flour mixture. Stir in dates & walnuts.
  • Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until cake tester inserted in middle comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
  • Prepare the frosting: in a bowl, blend together all frosting ingredients until fluffy. If icing is too thick, add a little more coffee to thin it. If too thin, add icing sugar. Spread icing over cooled cake.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned rolled oats. They will give your cake a chewier texture than quick oats or steel-cut oats.
  • Toast the oats before using them. This will enhance their flavor and make them less likely to make your cake gummy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make your cake tough.
  • Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches. A smaller pan will make your cake too thick and dense.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cake.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

With its rich mocha flavor and moist, tender crumb, this oatmeal cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. It's perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, and it's easy to make ahead of time.
