  • Total Time: 35-38 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats
  • 2 tablespoons liquid sweetener (maple syrup, honey, or agave nectar)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 tablespoons chocolate chips, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and arrange a rack in the middle of the oven.
  2. Prepare the ramekins: Lightly coat two 8-ounce ramekins with cooking spray and place them on a rimmed baking sheet for easy handling.
  3. Blend the ingredients: In a blender, combine the bananas, eggs, oats, sweetener, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Blend for 20-30 seconds until smooth.
  4. Assemble the oats: Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared ramekins. Stir 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips into each ramekin and gently mix. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
  5. Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until puffed, golden, and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the baked oats to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!

Notes

  • Variations: Add nuts like walnuts or pecans, or seeds like chia or flax for extra texture. For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free milk and chocolate chips. Use stevia, monk fruit, or another sweetener for a low-sugar option. Top with fresh banana slices, nut butter, or extra maple syrup for added flavor.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. These baked oats freeze well! Wrap individually and store for up to 2-3 months. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
