Servings: 1 person
Course: Breakfast, Dessert

Ingredients
  

Dough
  • ½ cup oats (see notes)
  • 1 banana
  • t tbsp flaxseeds
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
  • ½ tbsp cinnamon (optional)
  • ½ cup water (see notes)
Filling
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter (see notes)
  • 15 g dark chocolate (see notes)
Topping
  • berries/passion fruit
  • coconut flakes (optional)
  • sesame seeds (optional)

Method
 

  1. Blend together all the dough ingredients: oats, banana, flaxseeds, chia seeds, cinnamon, water.
  2. Pour ¾ of dough into an oven-safe bowl.
  3. Add peanut butter and chocolate.
  4. Cover with the remaining dough.
  5. Sprinkle with shredded coconut and sesame seeds.
  6. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 180 degrees. You can eat it if it's half-baked as well but then it's more like a "lava" cake inside.
  7. Top with berries and pop in the oven for 2 more minutes (if using frozen berries).
  8. Add passionfruit if using and enjoy.

Notes

- The wetter the dough, the longer it needs baking.
- Without blender: mash a banana with a fork, mix dry ingredients, and pour in the wet ingredients.
Oats: Instant, gluten free, rolled oats or oat flour all work.
Dark chocolate: Use chocolate chips or any other chocolate.
Peanut butter: Almond butter or any nut butter is fine.
Water: Or use almond milk or any other plant milk instead.
Beetroot powder: Optional but perfect for increasing the nutritional value.
