Chocolate Baked Oats:
• 1/2 cup rolled oats, blended
• 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used myprotein)
pinch of salt (approx 1/8 tsp)
• 1/3 cup any milk (I use 1%)
• 1 tbsp any sweetener (I used low calorie maple syrup, preferably a liquid sweetener)
• 1 tbsp dark chocolate chips
-
Chocolate Icing:
• 2 tbsp any milk (I use 1%)
• 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder (the remaining half)
-
Baking Time:
350°F for 15-16 minutes. Allow it to cool down for a few minutes.
-
Notes:
• Making sure to grease your small baking dish with oil OR use parchment paper to prevent as much sticking as possible.
• I use mini chocolate chips to cover more surface area of the cake to make it more moist and chocolatey.
• this recipe is best eaten when baked, you can store it in a container and eat within a couple of days, but do not make the icing until actually serving.
