  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup oats ground into flour
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice water would also work, but milk gives a much better consistency.

Instructions

Notes

You could use a different size baking dish, but you will have to adjust baking times. A larger pan will yield thinner brownie and a shorter baking time. A smaller baking dish will yeild a thicker brownie and longer baking time.
