Notes

The nutrition facts above are for the base recipe.
A small blender like a Nutribullet or Magic Bullet work the best for a single batch and give the smoothest consistency for the oat mixture.
We found that 25 minutes was the perfect amount of time to keep the mixture super moist. The toothpick test does not work well with this recipe and is not an indicator of doneness. If you want to bake until a toothpick comes clean, it will take closer to 40 minutes, but we found that the top and inside were very dry.
