In the meantime, peel and core the apple, then cut half of it into small pieces and the other half into slices.
Chop the walnuts finely, leaving some whole to decorate the cake.
Preheat the oven in static mode to 356°F and line a springform pan with parchment paper, 7 inches in diameter.
Add the apple pieces and chopped walnuts to the oat mixture, gently incorporating with the spatula, then pour the mixture into the cake pan.
