Peanut Butter & Chocolate Baked Oats is a delicious and nutritious breakfast or snack that combines creamy peanut butter, melty chocolate, and wholesome oats for a satisfying treat.

Ingredients

1/2 cup old fashioned oats

1/2 cup oat milk

2 tablespoons peanut butter, divided

1 tablespoon applesauce

1 tablespoon agave or honey

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 scoop protein powder (optional)

1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips + more for topping (optional)

1 chocolate square for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a small baking dish (about 6×6 inches) or ramekin.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, oat milk, 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, applesauce, agave or honey, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt, and protein powder (if using). Stir well to combine.
  3. Pour the oat mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  4. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips over the top and gently press them in with a spoon.
  5. In a small bowl, microwave the remaining 1 tablespoon of peanut butter for 15-20 seconds until it’s soft and pourable. Drizzle it over the top of the oats.
  6. Place a chocolate square on top for extra chocolatey goodness.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the oats are firm and the top is golden.
  8. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Top with additional chocolate chips if desired and serve.

Notes

This recipe can be made vegan by using maple syrup instead of honey and ensuring the protein powder is plant-based.

Feel free to add fruits like bananas or berries for added flavor and nutrients.

For a nutty texture, you can add chopped peanuts, almonds, or walnuts to the batter.

To make it sugar-free, swap the agave or honey for a sugar-free sweetener like stevia or monk fruit sweetener.
