Ingredients
  

  • 1 + ¾ cups rolled oats
  • 1 chia egg (1 tbsp chia + 3 tbsp water)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 + ¼ cup milk I used oat
  • 1 tsp coconut oil melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter drippy is best!
  • ½ cup chocolate chips DF

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 6x6 baking dish or a pie dish.
  • Prepare the chia egg by combining 1 tbsp of chia seeds with 3 tbsp of water. Allow to sit until it becomes jelly-like in nature, approx 5-8 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, cinnamon, baking soda, chia egg, milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla, maple syrup and nut butter. Mix until all the ingredients are combined.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips until they are well distributed throughout the batter.
  • Pour into the baking dish (it will be semi wet looking) and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until you can insert a toothpick and remove it cleanly. The top of the oats will be golden brown as well.

Notes

Storing and Reheating Instructions

Chocolate Chip Baked Oats will store in the refrigerator in an air tight container for up to 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
If you'd like to freeze, allow the baked oats to cool, slice the oats into individual slices, then stack the slices with a piece of parchment or wax paper in between inside a freezer safe container or zip top bag to prevent sticking. This will prevent them from freezing into one big bar.
Microwave for the fastest reheat option. You can also bake at 300 degrees F until warmed through, about 10-15 minutes or until warm again.

Time Saving Hacks

Great news - these baked oats are easy to reheat and can be made at the start of the week. Store them in the refrigerator and take from the batch as the week goes on.
If you have a larger family, feel free to double or triple the recipe and bake in 2 or 3 baking dishes at once.
