Ingredients
  

For the chocolate oats

  • 3 cups rolled or old fashioned oats See Note 1
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee
  • 1 cup oat milk See Note 2
  • 1 large banana, mashed (about 1/2 cup)
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips plus more for sprinkling

For the optional Greek yogurt topping

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt any kind (full fat, low fat, etc)
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 and spray a 9 x 9 baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients for the chocolate oats. With a wooden spoon, stir about 30 seconds to a minute until everything is well combined and you have a thick batter. It will be about the thickness of pancake batter.
  • Pour mixture into a the baking pan. Top with extra chocolate chips, if desired.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and oat mixture is slightly firm to the touch.
  • While oats are baking, you can make the optional Greek yogurt topping, if you like! Whisk together Greek yogurt, brown sugar and vanilla.
  • Allow the baked oats to cool, then cut into squares and top with the Greek yogurt, if using.

Notes

Note 1: Old fashioned rolled oats give the baked oats the absolute best texture. Quick cooking oats work fine too, however they have a shorter cooking time and I find they get slightly softer when baked. I would avoid steel cut oats, as they make the dish too soft and mushy. 
Note 2: Any non-dairy milk will work! Regular milk works great too if you aren't concerned with making this recipe dairy free!
