Servings: 6
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1¾ cups almond milk or any dairy or dairy-free milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups rolled or quick oats
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼-⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together. Add in maple syrup, yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract.
Once combined, pour in the oats, cocoa powder, baking powder & sea salt. Mix until well combined. Mix in your chocolate chips and reserve some for topping if you'd like!
Pour into a greased 9x9 baking pan. You can also use another size baking dish, just adjust cooking times if needed. A regular 12 cup muffin tin works great too!
Bake for about 30-35 minutes until the center is set but still soft.
Cut into 6-9 slices depending on your preference. I love serving mine with yogurt, fruit, and peanut butter! Enjoy!
