I love varying regular cooked oats with oven baked oats. Making oven baked oats almost taste and feels like eating a cake for breakfast or afternoon snack. And the best thing is that you can flavor it just as you like or what you’re in the mood for. And this time I really felt like making a chocolate flavored oven baked oats. And it literally tastes like a chocolate cake. This oven baked oats is made both with rolled oats and steel cut oats, just because I love how the steel cut oats add a nice chewing resistance and contrast to the soft and creamy rolled oats. But if you prefer to only use rolled oats then you can go ahead and just use rolled oats. This chocolate baked oats is topped with nut butter, chopped walnuts and sliced banana. It is perfect to serve for a warming and delicious breakfast or afternoon snack. It is both vegan, gluten and refined sugar free.
A few tips:
- Adapt the amount cacao powder according to how strong chocolate taste you prefer.
- You can swap the steel cut oats for more rolled oats if preferred. But I love the texture and taste the steel cut oats add to this baked oats.
- You can use and milk you like and prefer.
- Don’t bake the oats for too long so it gets dry. It should be baked through but still moist and creamy.
- This oven baked oats can be baked and then reheated if you want to prepare it in advance.
