This recipe uses simple ingredients to create a delicious and nutritious meal that can be enjoyed by one or scaled up for multiple servings. The texture is smooth and cake-like, making it a delightful way to start your day.

Ingredients

• Cooking spray
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons milk, or non-dairy milk
• 1 tablespoon honey, or maple syrup
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 1/4 cup ripe mashed banana
• 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon sugar, or demerara sugar, optional

Steps to Make It

1. Gather the ingredients.

2. Prepare the ramekin:

   • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 F. Spray an 8-ounce ramekin or oven-safe mug with cooking spray.

3. Blend the ingredients:

   • Combine the egg, milk, sweetener, oats, baking powder, salt, and banana in a blender. Alternatively, if using an immersion blender, combine in a bowl. Blend the oat mixture until smooth.

4. Pour and add chocolate chips:

   • Pour the blended oat mixture into the ramekin or mug and swirl all but about 1 teaspoon of the mini chocolate chips into the batter.

5. Top and bake:

   • Top with the remaining 1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips and cinnamon sugar, if using. Bake the blended oats for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs clinging to it.

Tips

• A single-serving blender is the best choice for making one serving.
• Make sure to spray the ramekin with cooking spray or grease it with oil or butter.
• The baked oats will be dry if overbaked. Stick to about 20 to 22 minutes for 8-ounce ramekins or about 15 to 17 minutes for 6-ounce ramekins.
• If you don't have a blender, you may use oat flour to make baked oats. Alternatively, use a food processor to grind rolled oats into a smooth flour. Using oat flour, make the batter with a whisk or electric mixer.

How to Store

• If you make a larger batch and have leftover portions, cover the ramekins and refrigerate them for up to 3 days.
• Reheat in the microwave for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, until hot.
