Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- ⅔ cup milk of choice
- ½ tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- pinch salt
- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons nut butter
- 1 ripe banana
Mix-ins
- Optional handful of chocolate chips
- For topping: crushed peppermint
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a small dish with cooking spray. My dish is about 6x9 inches but a bread pan or an 8x8 would work as well.
- In the base of a blender, combine all of the ingredients minus the toppings. Blend until smooth and few lumps remain. Pour into the prepared pan.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and sprinkle the top with crushed peppermint.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until set on the top and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean. It’s ok if it’s still a little soft. Let cool slightly and enjoy!
