Calories 1975kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cup flour
- 2/3 cup oats quick or old fashioned (I used old fashioned)
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
- 1 egg
- 3 Tb butter melted & cooled
- 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9×5 loaf pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and chocolate chips.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.
- Add the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, just until fully incorporated. The batter will be lumpy.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Let cool on a rack before slicing to serve.
Notes
- You can use quick oats or old fashioned oats in this recipe. I usually opt for old fashioned.
- Melt and cool your butter before you whisk it together with the egg so you don't end up scrambling your egg.
- Don't use a mixer for this recipe - a wooden spoon or spatula is all you need, which will prevent over-mixing.
- If you don't like chocolate chips, you can skip them altogether or substitute raisins or dried fruit.
