1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 large banana, 1/4 cup milk, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp honey, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract, 1-2 tbsp chocolate chips
Divide the batter into the two ramequins, Pour enough to fill 2/3 of the ramequins in each one, and bake in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes.

Notes

How to tell when baked oats are done: the top looks dry and springs back when pressed, and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter. Pull them while the very center still looks slightly soft, they finish setting as they cool.

Air fryer time guide: two 6 to 7 oz ramekins at 350F take 8 to 10 minutes. One larger baking dish takes longer at the same temperature, so check every couple of minutes past the 10 minute mark. Air fryers vary a lot, so use the doneness cue rather than the clock the first time.

For a high protein version: add a scoop of protein powder and use a whole banana instead of half. Protein powder pulls moisture out, so the extra banana keeps the texture from going dry.

Storage: cover and refrigerate up to 2 days, or freeze up to 1 month. Reheat in the microwave for 30 to 60 seconds from the fridge, 60 to 90 seconds from frozen.
