Chocolate Baked Oats
Chocolate Baked Oats are a wholesome breakfast or snack option where rolled oats, ripe bananas, cocoa powder, milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla are blended until smooth, then baked into individual portions with a melty chocolate chip topping. The result is a moist, cake-like texture with a rich chocolate flavor balanced by natural sweetness from banana and maple syrup.

Notes
- Store leftover baked oats covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- They also freeze well for up to 2 months; thaw before reheating.
- For larger portions, double the recipe and bake in a loaf pan or large baking dish.
- If lacking ripe bananas, they can be quickly ripened in the oven or air fryer.
- Vanilla baked oats can be made by omitting cocoa powder and adding mix-ins such as berries, nuts, or nut butters.
- Enhance protein by stirring in powder or drizzling nut butter on top.
