Light cake based on carrots, oat flakes, and Greek yogurt, without sugar, cooked in an air fryer. Ideal for breakfast or snack, customizable with dried fruits, cocoa or alternatives for intolerances.
Blend the ingredients: combine blended carrots, oat flakes, egg white, Greek yogurt, coconut flour, cinnamon, and baking powder and blend until a homogeneous dough is obtained. If a more rustic consistency is preferred, blend the oat flakes less.
Transfer the mixture to an air fryer-safe pan (preferably silicone). Set the air fryer to 160°C and cook for about 20-30 minutes; check the cooking with a skewer: if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
Let it cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm or cold, possibly accompanied by a spoonful of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
