Notes
- Rolled Oats: You can use quick oats. DO NOT use steel-cut oats.
- Make them Vegan: Instead of the egg, use 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flax meal + 2.5 tablespoon warm water).
- Microwave Cooking: If you are in a rush, you can also microwave chocolate baked oats in under 2 minutes. Make the batter as directed, then microwave on high for 90 – 120 seconds. The baked oats will puff up a lot and almost look like they are over-rising (that is normal); they will sink back to normal when they are done cooking. Every microwave is different, so I always check mine at the 90-second mark. If they look underdone or a little liquidy, cook in 10-second intervals until done.

- Air Frying: Yes, you can also air fry this double chocolate baked oats recipe. Simply preheat your air fryer to 290°F and air fry for 12 – 15 minutes, until fluffy and risen. Check halfway through air frying; you may need to cover the top with aluminum foil if they are cooking too fast. Check this #1 Google-ranked air fryer baked oats recipe next!
- Storing: For best results, store chocolate baked oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 5 – 8 minutes, in the oven at 350°F for 5 – 8 minutes, or in the microwave for 1 – 2 minutes.
