Oat Muffins
Based on Easy Oatmeal Muffins from Allrecipes.
I recommend chocolate chips, but you can use any additions you want. Make as mini or full sized muffins, both are delicious.
Silicone muffin tins make getting muffins out much easier, but are more annoying to clean. You could also use paper muffin liners/cupcake cups, or grease (with oil, butter, or a cooking non-stick spray).
Ingredients
1 cup water
1 cup quick cooking oats
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips, nuts or other addition (optional)
Directions
In a small bowl, combine water and oats; let soak for ~15 minutes.
Add the egg and oil, beating them together before stirring into the mixture.
Stir in the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until just combined – don’t over-mix.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups until cups are 2/3 full.
Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Ingredients Halved
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
1 egg
1/8 cup oil

Chocolate Cake Batter
I think this is much better as raw batter than baked cake. Therefore, the recipe is quartered – closer to a single or double sized snack than a whole cake.
However, flour is a raw ingredient which if contaminated could make you sick, so eat at your own risk.
Based on the Chocolate Olive Oil Cake recipe from Smitten Kitchen. Head there for the full recipe, glaze, and baking directions.
