Instructions

Step 1

Grease a 10 ounce microwave-safe mug or ramekin with nonstick cooking spray. Use a fork to whisk together egg, milk, maple syrup, oil, and vanilla extract.

Step 2

Using the fork, stir in the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. If using chocolate chips, do not add them yet.

Step 3

Pour the batter into the prepared mug. Place in the microwave and cook for 45 seconds at full power. Remove and use a fork to stir the batter until uniformly mixed again. This helps the egg disperse, not settle to the bottom, and avoids rubbery results. If adding chocolate chips, add now and briefly stir to disperse.

Step 4

Return to the microwave and cook 45-60 seconds more. There will still be a little moisture at top, and that is fine. It will absorb as it sits for 1 minute before serving. Avoid over cooking for best texture.
