Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal is like a big warm cookie, only healthier. Made with old fashioned oatmeal and a touch of sweetener, these should definitely be on your breakfast menu soon!
In a blender, combine the dry ingredients - the oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse until the mixture looks like flour.
Then add the wet ingredients to the blender - the eggs, melted (and slightly cooled) butter, maple syrup, milk, and vanilla. Pulse again until well combined.
Pour the oatmeal mixture evenly into four ramekins. Add the chocolate chips to the ramekins, reserving a few for the top.
Bake for 15 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven, and then add the reserved chips to the top. Bake for another 4-5 minutes, or until it's done to your liking. I prefer to remove the bowls when they are slightly gooey on top.
Remove oatmeal from the oven, add a spinkle of kosher salt, and let cool slightly before eating.
Notes
Storing baked oatmeal. If you don't eat these immediately, you can store cooled ramekins in the refrigerator. When ready to eat, just warm up in the microwave.
