  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 overripe banana
  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tablespoons honey (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it is hot and ready for baking your oats mixture.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Add all the ingredients except the mini chocolate chips into a high-speed blender and blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a batter-like consistency.
  3. Prepare Ramekins: Evenly divide the oat batter among four ramekins, then sprinkle the mini chocolate chips on top of each to add bursts of chocolate in every bite.
  4. Bake: Place the ramekins in the oven and bake for 25 minutes until the tops are puffed up and lightly golden brown, indicating they are cooked through.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the baked oats cool for at least five minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature as a comforting breakfast or snack.

  • Feel free to add nuts or dried fruits for extra texture and flavor.
  • Ensure the banana is overripe for optimal sweetness and moisture.
  • These baked oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
