Triple Choc Breakfast Bake

Ingredients

• 0.333 cup oats (can also use oat flour; if using whole oats, blend into flour first)
• 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (author uses Truvani brand)
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder
• 0.5 banana (mashed)
• 3 tbsp milk of choice (start with 3 tbsp and add up to 4 until gooey consistency is reached)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 0.25 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp chocolate chips

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

2. 2

   If using whole oats, blend them in a high-speed blender until they reach a fine flour consistency.

3. 3

   In a mixing bowl, mash the half banana thoroughly.

4. 4

   Add the oat flour, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, vanilla, and baking powder to the mashed banana.

5. 5

   Mix the ingredients together while adding the milk one splash at a time. Stir until the mixture is smooth and reaches a gooey consistency; be careful not to make it too runny.

6. 6

   Fold in the chocolate chips.

7. 7

   Pour the batter into a small oven-safe baking dish.

8. 8

   Bake for 20 minutes. For a fudgier, brownie-like consistency, underbake the dish for approximately 12 minutes.

Notes

For a 'brownie batter' consistency, bake for only 12 minutes since the recipe contains no raw eggs. This recipe is excellent for meal prep; double the ingredients and save half for the next day as it tastes great served cold.
