Let's cook

  1. Blend the oats to flour

    Blend the oats alone first until they resemble a coarse flour. Blending everything together at once leaves a gritty texture.

    💡

    Oats first, on their own. It takes ten seconds and changes the result completely.

  2. Add the wet ingredients

    Add the banana, egg, milk, baking powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt and blend until smooth and pourable.

  3. Fill and top

    Pour into two greased ramekins, filling two-thirds. Push the chocolate chips in and swirl the peanut butter across the top.

  4. Bake

    Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 22–25 minutes until risen and set with a slight wobble at the very centre.

  5. Rest briefly

    Rest 5 minutes — it firms up considerably — then eat straight from the ramekin.

📝 Tips, swaps, and make-ahead notes

The banana must be properly ripe or the whole thing tastes bland and needs more syrup. Bakes well in a muffin tin too: fill eight cups and bake 18 minutes.

  • Vegan: A flax egg works; the texture is slightly denser.
  • Meal prep: Bake six at once and reheat for 45 seconds in the microwave.
  • Flavours: Blueberry and lemon zest, or apple and cinnamon.
