Add the oats, flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir until the mixture is evenly combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the top is golden and the edges start to pull away from the sides.
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
These baked oats are meant to be soft and lightly cakey, not firm like bars or muffins. Let cool before slicing so they set properly and hold together. Use rolled oats only; steel-cut oats will not cook through.Recipe very closely based on Feel Good Foodie's Banana Baked Oatmeal. I have made minimal changes, I added chocolate chips and made it plant-based.
