Ingredients

Wet

  • 1 large egg see notes for vegan
  • 1 tablespoon nut butter see notes
  • 2-4 tablespoons milk of choice I used almond
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry

  • ½ cup quick oats
  • 3 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • teaspoon salt
  • 1-2 tablespoons chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
  • Spray a 12-14 ounce ramekin with oil and set aside.
  • Whisk together all wet ingredients in a bowl until smooth, start with just 2 tablespoons of milk.
  • Mix in the dry ingredients. Feel free to add in any other mix-ins at this point such as berries, nuts etc.
  • If your batter seems too thick/dry, add in the remaining two tablespoons of milk. How much you need will depend on the exact protein powder you used.
  • Transfer to your ramekin and top with chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. If you like a more well done center, just bake for longer!
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes, then serve! I love topping mine with fresh berries or sliced banana.

Notes

For a lighter option, you can sub the nut butter for apple sauce. 
For a vegan option, sub the egg with 1/4 cup of apple sauce or mashed banana.
