How to Make Chocolate Brownie Oatmeal Bake

Ingredients:

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1 1/2 cup almond milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup chocolate chips (plus extra for sprinkling on top)
• Optional toppings: peanut butter, whipped cream, maple syrup, nuts

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
4. Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients and stir well until all components are thoroughly combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips gently, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips evenly over the top for extra chocolatey goodness.
6. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the oatmeal looks set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
7. Allow the baked oatmeal to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. Add your choice of optional toppings such as peanut butter, whipped cream, maple syrup, or nuts and enjoy!
