Description

This Baked Chocolate Brownie Oatmeal is a decadent yet wholesome treat that combines the rich flavors of cocoa and chocolate chips with hearty rolled oats. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a guilt-free dessert, it’s made with wholesome ingredients like almond milk, maple syrup, and coconut oil. Baked to perfection, it has a fudgy brownie-like texture with an oatmeal base, topped optionally with peanut butter, whipped cream, or nuts for added indulgence.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 cups almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins and Toppings

  • 1 cup chocolate chips (plus extra for sprinkling on top)
  • Optional toppings: peanut butter, whipped cream, maple syrup, nuts


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 inch baking pan with coconut oil or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir these together until evenly blended.
  3. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients and stir until fully incorporated, forming a thick batter.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter, then pour the batter into your prepared baking dish. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top for a melty chocolate finish.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the oatmeal looks set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with optional toppings such as peanut butter, whipped cream, maple syrup, or nuts for added flavor and texture.

Notes

  • This baked brownie oatmeal is a healthy and satisfying snack or breakfast option that combines the indulgence of brownies with the nutritional benefits of oats.
  • You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based or dairy milk according to preference.
  • For a vegan version, use a flax or chia egg substitute and ensure chocolate chips are dairy-free.
  • Stir in nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch and nutrients.
  • Storage: Keep leftover brownies covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat before serving.
