These chocolate baked oats are a decadent yet wholesome breakfast or brunch recipe. With a cake-like texture and rich chocolate flavor, they’re the perfect way to start your day on a sweet note!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ¾ cup almond milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 very ripe banana
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chunks (or chips)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • 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.
  • Top Each Ramekin: Add dark chocolate chunks to the top of each ramekin.
  • Bake: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for stability and bake for 30 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  • 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.
