Oatmeal Raisin Breakfast Cake

Here is another great, wheat-free recipe.  If you have trouble getting your kids to eat a healthy breakfast, try this one.  Telling my kids they get to eat cake for breakfast really made their day!

What you need:

3 cups of whole oats, ground into flour in a food processor
1/4 cup of sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 cup egg whites
1/3 cup yogurt, any flavor (don't worry, you won't be able to taste it!)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

How to make it:

Preheat oven to 375 F.  Grease an 8 inch cake pan.  Mix egg, milk, and yogurt in blender.  Add walnuts and blend on low until mixed.  Slowly add oats, sugar, baking powder and salt into blender and mix until well blended.  Pour mixture into greased cake pan and evenly distribute the raisins throughout the mixture.  Bake for 30-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted into middle comes out clean.  Serve warm with peanut butter or just plain.  This would also taste great with 1/2 cup of frozen vanilla yogurt for a dessert.
