Single Serve Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie

Single Serve.

Chocolate Chip.

Cookie.

Need I say more?

If you are anything like me. You have very little control when it comes to baking. Greattttttt- my day job is baking 😀 I get the question a lot- how do you not weigh a zillion pounds if you are always making stuff? Well- it’s been really really hard and I think I’m getting the hang of it.

I enjoy making single serve dessert recipes, because I get to indulge and not feel bad, because I literally made a single serving…instead of accidentally eating 6 cookies. It’s happened. Plus- Blake hates dessert, so if an entire batch of brownies gets devoured after a few days…we all know who the culprit is 😀

Ashley from Edible Perspective inspired me to make this recipe after I saw her Deep Dish Single Serve Chocolate Chip Cookie. <3 her.

This recipe calls for simple ingredients. It’s…

• Gluten free 
• Vegan
• Chewy
• Perfectly sweet

I am pretty excited about my new finds from Crate and Barrel. The mini cast iron pans were $9.99 each. The colored plates (they are smaller) were $2.99 each and the cute little chalk board container was $3.99 (I got 2). I just realized that I used all of my new props in these photos. Whoops… I was going to try and space them out a bit 😀

Confession- I probably rewrote “oats” 12 times. I’m just not a fan of my own handwriting. I never have been 😀 That’s why in 4th grade when we had typing class…I was the fastest typer in my whole grade! BOOM.

How to make Single Serve Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie

1. First preheat oven to 350F and rub a ramekin, mini cast iron pan, or cupcake tin with coconut oil. In a small bowl, prepare your chia egg by mixing ½ teaspoon of chia seeds with 1.5 teaspoons of water. Set aside.
2. Next, in a large bowl, mash about 2 inches of banana. Then, Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix.
3. Place cookie dough mixture into you pan and press down with a fork or spoon, so that it is even. Sprinkle more chocolate chips on top if desired.
4. Bake at 350F for about 15-17 minutes.

Question for you (because I’m curious)- Do you ever make single serving desserts? Or do you think they are a waste of time and would rather make a recipe that had more servings?
