Chocolate Mocha Baked Oatmeal Singles on a cooling rack

Oh my goodness, these Chocolate Mocha Baked Oatmeal Singles are a rich, chocolatey breakfast or snack that you will never believe is lightened up! The cocoa powder and chocolate chips are joined by espresso powder for depth of flavor that tastes positively decadent. I know it’s baked oatmeal, but I would definitely feel just as comfortable eating one of these for dessert as I would for breakfast! Coffee and chocolate is a flavor combination I love in desserts, so having it for breakfast is a real treat. Better still, making these Chocolate Mocha Baked Oatmeal Singles is super easy, ready in about 30 minutes, and each one is just 121 calories or 4 WW (Weight Watchers) Points each!

Chocolate Mocha Baked Oatmeal Singles with fruit and coffee

You may be used to seeing baked oatmeal made in a casserole dish, but I always bake mine in muffin tins to make “singles.” I just love that they’re already portioned and it’s quick to just grab one at breakfast or snack time and eat it like a muffin. The reason I don’t call them muffins is that they have the denser texture of baked oatmeal and don’t contain flour, so they aren’t fluffy like a muffin. I’ve made baked oatmeal singles in a huge variety of flavors (some are linked below), but this chocolate mocha variety is definitely one I’m going to be making again and again. I’m obsessed with these flavors and how rich and chocolatey these taste!

Chocolate Mocha Baked Oatmeal Singles with espresso powder

I decided to use unsweetened vanilla almond milk in this recipe, but you can definitely substitute skim milk without issue. I’ve been using almond milk a little more lately because I like that it has less sugar, carbs and calories than milk while still containing the calcium and vitamins. Wegmans started selling their own brand which is competitively priced with skim milk, and I really like it! If you have Wegmans in your area, I suggest checking it out.

4.75 from 12 reviews

Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder, I used DeLallo
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg white
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, (you can substitute skim milk without changing the WW points)
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 6 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly mist 12 cups in a muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Combine the oats, brown sugar, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and stir until thoroughly mixed.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg white, egg, almond milk, and applesauce until smooth. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until blended together. Add in the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
  • Spoon the oatmeal mixture evenly amongst the prepared muffin cups. Bake uncovered for 20-22 minutes or until the oatmeal is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. I recommend allowing the singles to cool for 10 minutes before removing them from the muffin tin.
