Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Cake
Happy Saturday friends!
I hope you have some gathering, party, or event to go to this weekend.
Because you need to make this cake.
I chose it for my Nana’s 88th birthday yesterday. I can’t imagine celebrating my birthday EIGHTY-EIGHT times. I can’t even remember what I did for my 15th birthday. Imagine what it will be like in 63 years?
My Nana is a fan of sweet, simple desserts. Old-timey, ya know. This Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Cake has been bookmarked forever with her in mind. You can find the recipe here, and a step-by-step here.
We all know anything with oatmeal automatically gets deemed healthy. Even if it does have three times as much sugar as oatmeal.
Soft, fluffy, super sweet, with a heartiness that can only come from oats and a syrupy-sweet crunchy topping.
I really hope you have a birthday to celebrate this weekend. Or housewarming. Barbecue. Baby shower. Bat mitzvah. Because you need to make this cake.
