Detailed Instructions
Preparation Phase
Begin by preheating your oven to 360°F (180°C). This specific temperature ensures even baking while maintaining moisture.
If starting with whole oats, grind them in a food processor or blender until you achieve a fine, flour-like consistency. The texture should be uniform to ensure proper binding.
Place the raisins in a bowl and cover them completely with hot water. Allow them to soak for 10 minutes – this step is crucial as it makes the raisins plump and juicy, distributing moisture throughout the cake.
