One Bowl Chocolate Baked Oatmeal
Chocolate baked oatmeal takes chocolate for breakfast to a whole new level - you just need one bowl and 40 minutes of time. Enjoy these baked chocolate oats for breakfast, a snack or even a healthy dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 cups uncooked rolled or old fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 3 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cups milk I used 1%
- 1 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil or butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup chopped chocolate or chocolate chips, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Coat the inside of a 9x9 baking dish with butter, oil or non-stick spray.
- Mix dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, cocoa powder).
- Beat in milk, eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. It may look a little watery.
- Add in chocolate chips last, reserving some for topping the mixture.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until oats are tender and moisture has been absorbed.
- Drizzle with a little maple syrup, to taste.
Notes
STORAGE: Store it covered in a tupperware or glass container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze it, as mentioned above.
You can freeze it for up to 3 months. Make sure to freeze in smaller, single serving portions for easier reheating. It's one my favorite healthy freezer meals for new moms.
To reheat, just throw in the microwave in a microwaveable bowl. Or, you can reheat larger pieces or a whole baked oatmeal in the oven. Consider adding a little milk or liquid if it's overly dry, and cook at 400 for 15-20 minutes, until cooked through.
