Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine rolled oats, almond milk, egg, banana, baking powder, cocoa powder, honey, and salt. Blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is smooth and the oats are broken down. Prepare the Ramekins: Pour the blended oat mixture evenly into two 10-ounce ramekins.

Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for a gooey texture or at room temperature for a firmer consistency. Notes Ramekin Size: This recipe is ideal for 10-ounce ramekins. For smaller ramekins, split the batter into three portions and reduce baking time slightly. Add-Ins: Customize with nuts, shredded coconut, or a dollop of peanut butter swirled into the batter. Make It Vegan: Replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water) and use maple syrup instead of honey.
