Notes

Sift the dry ingredients: To avoid lumps and ensure a smooth texture, sift the oat flour and cocoa powder before mixing. This also aerates the ingredients, resulting in a lighter batter.
Stir, don't beat: When you're combining the wet and dry ingredients, stir the mixture gently until just combined. Over-mixing can lead to a gummy texture.
Adjust the dough: If the batter seems too crumbly, add a splash of milk. Alternatively, if it is too thin, sprinkle in a touch of extra flour until you reach the right consistency.
Omit the caffeine: To make this recipe more kid-friendly, leave out the instant espresso powder to reduce the caffeine content.
Customize the mix-ins: Beyond chocolate chips, try adding chopped nuts, dried fruit, or a pinch of sea salt to switch up the flavor and texture.
Whisking the dry ingredients before adding wet components helps distribute the coffee and cocoa evenly, enhancing the flavor.
Add the liquid ingredients gradually to control the batter's thickness. It should be thick and scoopable since it won't be baked.
Reserve some chocolate chips to sprinkle on top of the batter before serving for added sweetness and visual appeal.
