# Instructions:

Turn your oven on to 350°F. Get an 8x8 pan ready by spraying it with non-stick spray or lining it with parchment paper.

Stir oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a big bowl until they're all mixed up.

Dump in the milk, maple syrup, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla. Mix it well until everything blends together smoothly.

Carefully stir the chocolate chips into the batter. Pour it into your prepared baking dish, and toss a handful of extra chips on top.

Put the pan into the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes. It’s ready when the center feels firm to the touch. Let it sit in the pan until it cools a bit before you dig in.

For a fun finish, drizzle melted chocolate on top and sprinkle on some flaky salt. Sweet and salty perfection!
