Coconut Oat Cake

Even though it's a cake it could definitely be eaten for breakfast.  Because of the oats it's a hardy cake not light and fluffy. You could even do muffins with this recipe.

1 cup oats
2 tbsps cream of wheat
2 tbsps chia seeds
1  1/4 cups boiling water
1/2 cup butter or marg
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1  1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Soak the oats, cream of wheat and chia in boiling water and set aside.

Beat butter and sugar together, then add the vanilla and eggs. Stir in the oat mixture and combine well. 

Mix the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg together, then add to the wet mixture in 3 additions.

Pour into a greased 9 X 9" baking pan and bake at 350 F for 40-50 minutes.

For the topping mix together:

1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tbsps cream (I used 10%)
3/4 cup coconut

and spread over the cake while still warm.
