Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk dairy or plant-based
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375℉ and prepare an 8x8” baking dish by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the milk, Greek yogurt, eggs and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the oats, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add this to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour this into the prepared baking dish and make sure it spreads out evenly. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top (optional).
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into it and serving with your desired toppings. Enjoy!

Notes

Substitutions

  • Quick oats
    • Feel free to use these instead of old fashioned rolled oats.
  • Flavoured Greek yogurt
    • If you prefer to use a flavoured Greek yogurt instead of plain, I recommend vanilla or banana flavour.
  • Alternative milks
    • If you follow a plant-based diet or just prefer alternative milks, you can also use oat or almond milk in this recipe instead.
  • Other types of brown sugar
    • Any kind of brown sugar will work in this recipe.
  • White, milk or dark chocolate chips
    • If you prefer white, milk or dark chocolate chips, please use these instead!
  • Chocolate chunks
    • For more texture and larger pieces of chocolate, opt for a chocolate chunk instead of chocolate chips.
 

Dietary considerations

  • Dairy free: opt for dairy-free yogurt, milk (like soy or almond) and chocolate chips.
  • Vegan: opt for a vegan yogurt (ex. Coconut- or soy-based), a plant-based milk (like soy or almond) and vegan chocolate chips.
