Chocolate Peanut Butter
- Same ingredients as in "chocolate" but add a spoonful of nut butter and a sprinkle of extra chocolate chips on top!
Instructions
- PREP: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease 8-ounce ramekins with cooking spray and set aside. (See Note 3 if you only want to make one serving.)
- PLAIN VERSION: In a blender, combine all the ingredients in the order listed until smooth, about 90-120 seconds. There shouldn't be any chunks of oats or nuts. (Blend again if needed.) Use a 1/3 measuring cup to evenly divide the batter into prepared ramekins (only putting 1/3 cup of mixture in each ramekin). Transfer prepared ramekins to a baking sheet and bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs when inserted into the center. The cake shouldn't look gooey on top. Remove and top with toppings of choice and enjoy promptly!
- CHOCOLATE CHIP VERSION: In a blender, combine all the ingredients in the order listed EXCEPT the chocolate chips. Blend until smooth, about 90-120 seconds. There shouldn't be any chunks of oats or nuts. (Blend again if needed.) Let cool slightly and then stir through the chocolate chips. Use a 1/3 measuring cup to evenly divide the batter into prepared ramekins (only putting 1/3 cup of mixture in each ramekin). Transfer prepared ramekins to a baking sheet and bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs when inserted into the center. The cake shouldn't look gooey on top. Remove and top with toppings of choice and enjoy promptly!

Notes
Note 1: Blender: This recipe is quick and easy to make, but you do need a good, powerful blender (think Blendtec® or Vitamix®) to break down the cashews and oats into a smooth mixture. We love this mini “Twister” jar for this recipe since there isn't a whole lot of batter that it won't blend as easily in a larger jar.
Note 2: Ramekins: 8-ounce ramekins are a must-have for this recipe. Unfortunately, these baked oats won't turn out the same in different-sized ramekins.
Note 3: Baked Oats Recipe For One: Only bake one cake at a time. Transfer the rest of the batter to an airtight container and store in the fridge until ready to use. The batter stores nicely in the fridge for 5-7 days. Give the leftover stored batter a quick stir before adding to ramekins.
