Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp chocolate chips, plus more for top

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-ounce ramekin. Place oats, banana, egg, milk, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and vanilla in a blender and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  2. Pour batter into the prepared ramekin. Stir in 2 tbsp chocolate chips, then scatter a few extra on top.
  3. Place ramekin on a baking sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until puffed and the center still has a slight jiggle.
  4. Let cool for 5 minutes, then dig in while still warm.

Notes

The baked oats are very hot right out of the oven, so a short cool-down helps you taste the chocolate without burning your mouth. If you skip the chocolate chips on top, the finished dish will look more like a dark chocolate cake with no glossy spots.
