In a blender (I used an individual blender cup attachment for my Ninja Blender) blend the quick oats into a fine flour
Now add the banana, egg, maple syrup, cocoa powder, baking powder, and vanilla. Pulse until you have a smooth batter
Pour your batter into a microwave safe bowl that is sprayed with non-stick spray.
Top with mini chocolate chips, if desired.
Microwave for 2-3 minutes. Check after 2 minutes as the power of microwaves can vary! A toothpick should come out clean when inserted.
Enjoy!

Notes
The riper the banana the sweeter your baked oats will be- look for a nice spotty one!Could leave out the cocoa powder if you want a vanilla baked oatmeal.
