Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 3 tbsp ground flax seed
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (at least 2% fat)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prep four ramekins or a baking dish by spraying lightly with oil.
- Method one: Add all ingredients except for chocolate into a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend on high until batter is smooth.
- Method two: Pulse rolled oats in the food processor until blended into a fine texture.
- Add to a large bowl and combine with dry ingredients: dark brown sugar, flax seed, salt, and baking powder.
- Then add wet ingredients: Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs, and combine well.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Pour batter evenly into each ramekin and top with more chocolate chips as desired.
- Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes depending on how firm you like your baked oats.
- When baked oats are ready, they will be slightly golden brown and feel firm but still a little spongey in the middle. A fork should come out mostly clean with a few crumbs.
Notes
For added fiber, substitute half the oats with your favorite seeds or nuts. You can adjust sugar levels or incorporate fruits and nuts. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-5 days or freeze individual portions for up to 3 months.
