½ cup certified gluten free oats or regular rolled or quick oats
½ tsp baking powder

1 egg
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
⅛ tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup
½ tsp vanilla extract

1 tbsp plain greek yogurt
1 tbsp powdered sugar can use sugar free if desired

Preheat oven to 350F and grease a small oven safe dish.
