Description

Cinnamon oatmeal cake with a crunchy broiled pecan and coconut frosting.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CAKE:
  • 2 Tablespoons Rolled Oats
  • ¼ cups Hot Water
  • 6 Tablespoons Shortening, Plus Extra For Greasing The Pan
  • 5 Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1 whole Large Egg
  • ¾ cups Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ⅛ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • FOR THE BROILED FROSTING:
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • ¼ cups Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Milk
  • ⅓ cups Chopped Pecans
  • ⅓ cups Sweetened Coconut Flakes

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Grease a 6” round cake pan with shortening and set aside.

In a small bowl, add the rolled oats and hot water. Let sit while you make the rest of the cake.

In a medium bowl, beat together the shortening and sugars. Cream very well, then add the egg and beat till combined.

In another bowl, whisk together all remaining dry ingredients (flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda and powder). Add this to the creamed shortening mixture and stir with a spatula until just combined. Add the oats and their soaking water and stir until just combined—do not overmix. Pour into the cake pan and bake on the center rack for 29-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Let cool completely before moving on.

When ready to serve the cake, preheat the broiler to high and prepare the broiled frosting. Combine the butter, brown sugar, milk and pecans in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and stir in the coconut. Spread the frosting evenly over the cake, then place it about 4” from the broiler and broil for 3-5 minutes, keeping a very close eye on it to keep it from burning. The frosting should be deliciously crunchy and crisp. Enjoy!
