½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
1 ½ tablespoons dairy-free dark chocolate chips (optional)

Notes
For a keto option, use 1 tablespoon of coconut flour instead of oat flour.
To make it creamier, add 1 teaspoon coconut oil or nut butter before cooking.
Baking option: Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 12–18 minutes in a ramekin.
Enjoy immediately for the best texture.
