INGREDIENTS:

20g Chocolate Whey Protein (I opted for Optimum Nutrition Extreme Milk Chocolate flavour)
100g Quaker Jumbo Rolled Oats
10g Dr Oetkar Extra Dark Chocolate Chunks (70%)
100ml Unsweetend Almond Milk
1 ripe medium banana

METHOD OF COOKING:

1. Mix all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl (Whey protein, oats, chocolate chunks)
2. Mash half a banana and add the almond milk to the mashed banana and mix
3. Mix dry and wet ingredients well to a thick batter-like consistency (add some water if the mixture is a little dry
4. Lightly grease the chosen dish with 1cal coconut oil spray
5. Add the mixture in a baking tin for an even cook or (my preference) add the mixture to a pie dish for a cooked outer edge and a warm soft gooey centre. 145 degrees celsius (fan assisted oven) for 14 – 17 minutes. 14 minutes for a soft centre and 17 minutes for evenly baked oatmeal. Experiment with timings.
6. Top with the rest of your banana (sliced) and cinnamon.
