These single serving chocolate baked oats are easy to make – a super healthy breakfast recipe that tastes like dessert!

If you’re bored of cereal every day, definitely give these chocolate oats a try.

Today’s recipe is a chocolate version of my Single Serving Baked Oatmeal.
You can choose to blend them before baking so the results turn into an oatmeal mug cake, or skip the blending step if you’re in a rush or would prefer some texture to your baked oats.

I baked mine in a 1-cup ramekin because I wanted to ensure the middle would stay undercooked and gooey. If you want the oat cake to be cooked evenly instead, use a wide and shallow baking dish, such as a 7×5 pan, instead of a ramekin.

And if you’re still craving oatmeal, try these Overnight Oats or my Banana Oatmeal.
