Ingredients for Chocolate Baked Oats

The list of ingredients for this vegan breakfast recipe is short and sweet! Here's what you need to make high-protein vegan chocolate baked oatmeal:

  • Rolled oats. These are also sometimes called old-fashioned oats. Avoid quick-cooking oats, which won't hold up well in the oven and are lower in nutrients and fiber.
  • Cocoa powder. Opt for unsweetened. You can also use cacao powder.
  • Banana. Choose a soft, ripe banana or the sweetest flavor.
  • Almond milk. Or any milk you like!
  • Almond butter. This adds richness and flavor. You could use a different nut or seed butter if you prefer. Peanut butter will give you a dessert-like flavor.
  • Maple syrup. Or use honey if you're not vegan.
  • Baking powder. This helps the oats rise up like little cakes in the oven.
  • Vanilla. To counter some of the bitterness of dark chocolate.
  • Dark chocolate chips to really round out your chocolate for breakfast experience.

Making Blended Baked Chocolate Oatmeal

If you haven't tried baked or blended oatmeal yet, you're in for a treat.

The result of blending all of the ingredients together before baking is a cake-like texture that's puffy and light, with a decadent, rich center.

You'll need two oven-safe ramekins to bake your oats. Be sure to spray them well with cooking spray before filling them for easier clean-up.

Honestly, you won't believe how delicious these chocolate baked oats are – it will feel like you're eating a brownie!

How to Increasing the Serving Size

This recipe serves two. However, you can easily increase the ingredients to make enough chocolate oatmeal to feed a crowd.

Simply scale everything up as necessary.

You can place all of the filled ramekins on a baking sheet for easy transfer to and from the oven. Or you could bake them in a muffin tin as a quick and easy meal prep breakfast idea for the week ahead!
