Notes

*I used 10-ounce ramekins. Any small baking dish will work, but this recipe is too large for regular 6-ounce ramekins. If you want to use a smaller dish, split it three ways.

Cooking Tips - If your oats look too moist after 30 minutes of cooking, give them an additional 5 minutes in the oven.

Storage - Once baked, the oats will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a microwave or the oven. They are best served warm so the chocolate on top is melty.

Diet/Allergy Alternatives - You can make this vegan by swapping out the egg for an additional ¼ cup of plant milk, and substituting agave or maple syrup for the honey.

Oh my goodness, I am not even kidding when I tell you this was the tastiest healthy food I've eaten in a long time! I cannot believe this is pretty much sugar free. Absolutely delicious. I put chunks of roasted almond chocolate on top and that made it even better. 10/10, I 100% recommend to anyone needing a filling, healthy and yummy snack/meal! 🙂
