CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BAKED OATMEAL

Just thought this up one morning and couldn't find any others like it on the site. Still in the tinkering/perfecting process so any suggestions are welcome :) (Thanks to Maito for some wonderful suggestions already!) Also, note that the type of oats you use will change the consistency of the oatmeal... quick oats will yield a cake-like oatmeal, whereas old fashioned oats will be a little more liquidy

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons brown sugar or 3 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
1 -2 tablespoon chocolate chips
1 tablespoon chopped nuts (optional)
1/4 cup skim milk (See note about water or milk combo)
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon Egg Beaters egg substitute
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease well an individual sized oven-proof dish/ramekin (at least 12 oz, this will bubble a bit).
In a small bowl, combine first 5 ingredients (oats through chocolate chips, plus nuts if you're using them).
In a separate bowl, combine remaining wet ingredients (milk through vanilla).
Mix together wet and dry ingredients. Pour into baking dish.
Bake 30-40 minutes or until top is crispy and oatmeal is relatively firm (quick-oats will firm up more than old-fashioned). Let cool 5-10 minutes.
NOTE: Alternately, all milk can be used, but this may make the oatmeal a little looser in consistency, since oats absorb water a little better than milk. If you choose to use all milk, quick oats may be a better choice :).
Also, If you want a larger serving size, use 3/4 cup oats and increase water to 1/2 cup.

Tips:

Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your oatmeal will be.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the oatmeal tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use a variety of chocolate chips: You can use all semi-sweet chocolate chips, or mix in some milk chocolate or dark chocolate chips for a more complex flavor.
Add nuts or dried fruit: For a more decadent oatmeal, add in some chopped walnuts, pecans, almonds, or dried cranberries, raisins, or blueberries.
Serve with your favorite toppings: Oatmeal is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with milk, yogurt, honey, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip baked oatmeal is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. It's perfect for meal prepping, as it can be made ahead of time and reheated throughout the week. With its combination of oats, bananas, chocolate chips, and warm spices, this oatmeal is sure to be a hit with everyone in the family.
