Calories: 442kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats 1 cup blended into flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- 2 scoops chocolate protein powder
- 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup coconut oil melted
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease an 8x8 baking dish with coconut oil or cooking spray.
- Blend half your oats in a high-speed blender to create oat flour. Leave the other half whole for texture.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together your oats, oat flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder, and protein powder.
- In a separate bowl, mix together almond milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Fold in your chocolate chips, saving a few for the top (always a pro move).
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Top with extra chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 28-33 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are slightly crispy.
- Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with a drizzle of peanut butter, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or go full dessert mode with some ice cream.
