How do I store leftovers?

These are best enjoyed warm, but you can store them covered in the fridge for up to 2 days. ❄️ The texture turns into more of a dense 'breakfast cake' when cold. *Pro-Tip:* Reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds to bring back that molten lava magic! ✨

Mine came out too dry, why?

It might be overbaked! 🕒 Every oven is different, so start checking 2-3 minutes before the recommended time. It should still be slightly jiggly in the center when you take it out. *Pro-Tip:* A dollop of yogurt in the batter ensures it stays moist even if you accidentally leave it in a minute too long! 🥣

Get in the festive spirit with Chocolate Peppermint! 🍫🍬 These baked oats are like a warm, fluffy brownie with a cool minty twist. Ideally topped with melting chocolate chips. It tastes like Christmas morning feels! 🎅 The contrast between the warm cake and the cooling mint is a sensory delight that wakes up your mouth. A holiday favorite you can eat year round. It is like a stress relief button; the mint calms you while the chocolate comforts you. ❄️

SOMMELIER NOTES

"Peppermint oil is potent; a little goes a long way. The heat from baking mellows the sharpness of the mint, blending it more seamlessly with the chocolate than in a cold application. Menthol activates the cold receptors in the mouth, creating a physical cooling sensation that persists even after the warm oat cake has been swallowed. This thermal illusion is what makes mint chocolate so polarizing and exciting."

Digestive Aid

Peppermint is excellent for settling the stomach and reducing bloating. It relaxes the muscles of the GI tract, making this a great breakfast choice if you often feel heavy or sluggish after eating.

Best Served Warm

Let it cool slightly before eating. If it is too hot, the heat can overpower the delicate mint oils. A warm (not piping hot) temperature allows both the chocolate and the mint to shine equally.

The Vegan Upgrade

Use a flax egg and dairy free chips! The flax egg adds a little nutty grit that mimics the texture of whole wheat flour, adding structure to the bake without any animal products.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can! 🌪️ Bake at 160°C (320°F) for about 8-12 minutes. The air fryer circulates heat faster, so keep an eye on it to prevent burning. *Pro-Tip:* use a heat-safe ramekin and maybe cover the top with foil for the first half if you want a gooier center! 🍫
