Lava Cake Baked Oats
These lava cake baked oats are the ultimate dessert for breakfast or healthier dessert! Probably the most chocolatey and decadent oats you will ever eat.
These baked oats taste like chocolate cake, with a molten chocolate center and finished with a dusting of powdered sugar and strawberries for a real treat. BUT it’s made healthier with ingredients like oat flour, protein powder, and naturally sweetened with maple syrup, making it a great decadent breakfast or healthier dessert! I love making this and hope you will try it too!
