Raw Carob Oat Cake - Please help!

Please – does ANYONE have a recipe for a cakey textured cake that would be carob oat cake? This restaurant in Chicago, Karyn’s raw, has the BEST carob oat cake and I cant find a recipe for the life of me. It’s a really dense cake where you can see the oats clearly in it. Does anyone have a receipe – or is just so good at creating raw foods could possible craft a recipe for me to try?

The cake there is not wet or gooy at all. It’s pretty dry/desnse. The ingredients on the menu say it contains this:

Carob Cake Made of carob powder, dates, oats & honey

Would this be DEHYDRATED, or just refridgerated or frozen to set?

  • Hi! Thank yoU! i dont even care if it doesnt turn out – i just need a baseline to start with! :)

    The oats you could SEE - most definitely. I AM NOT SURE IF THEY WERE ROLLED OR WHOLE groats? I am goign to try to find a picture of the cake online, i know i stubled across a website where someone had posted pics from the food at her restaurant. THANK YOU!! :)

  • Hi, I found the site – unfortunately, there are many pictures of other delicious things, But not specifically this cake. The top right picture

  • I have been thinking about the answer to that – and i am not sure. I would say they were. Or they could have been goats ground up a little bit? see, this is when i know nothing about raw foods. I would just say – you can definitely see them, they are smaller pieces of oats – so probably ground up or rolled oats. Im sorry for the vague answer.

  • The picture i put in my profile is a picture of the oat cake im trying to replicate. it is kinda small to see – but maybe you can see that it has tons of oats. I asked the restaurant and they claim there are no nuts.

    I attempted a carrot cake last night – it did NOT turn out good. I cant seem to get anythign to turn out great.

  • It’s ok – we can forget the frosting! it is good that is for sure – but im more interested in the cake. :)

  • angie – im so sorry about the delay in response – family emergency and im just getting back into life again.

    I REALLY appreciate you taking the time to do this – and of every which way i have tried to make the cake – this is all the same ingredients – but this looks like a better amount of things. I would putting WAY TOO MANY DATES IN THERE - way too many. I made one yesterday that was way too wet – so i dehydrated it for a few hours – worked better – but still not caky. I can not wait to try this – thank you so much again – that was so kind of you.

  • Did you have to refridgerate this for a certain amount of time, or freeze it – or dehydrate it at all? Did you put this in a glass baking dish? Sorry – just curious. Thank you again.
