Ingredients and Method to make microwave chocolate oatmeal bar
2 cups 1 minute oatmeal (quick cooking oats)
1 tbsp flax meal (powdered flax seeds/ alsi) + 3 tbsp water
Additional 2 tbsp water
1/2 cup sugar
6 tbsp butter melted
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 to 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate morsels ( I used 1/4 cup)
a little extra butter to grease the baking dish.
Grease a 8 inch round glass dish with a little butter and keep aside
In a large bowl mix together sugar and oatmeal.Whisk flax seed meal with water together for a few seconds until it turns gelatinous. Keep this aside.
Melt butter and pour over the oatmeal + sugar mixture and mix well. Pour the flax seed mixture over it as well and mix again. Add additional 2 tbsp water, vanilla extract and mix once more.
Spoon this mixture onto the pre greased dish and press down with the back of the spoon.
Microwave on high in 1 minute increments, rotate the dish every minute (if your microwave plate does not rotate) to ensure even cooking. It took me 4 minutes.

Remove and spread the chocolate morsels on top of the oatmeal mixture and on 30 percent power cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until the morsels turn shiny. (it took me 2 minutes because I only used 1/4 cup of morsels)
Spread the morsels with a knife and allow this mixture to cool a little. Place the dish in freezer for 15 to 20 minutes.
Cut into rectangle bars or small squares and place in an air tight container. Use within a few days for best freshness. I used this up in one weeks time.
Notes:
Because of varying wattage in each microwave, cooking times will vary in different microwaves. Also if you use a slightly larger or smaller dish, it will also impact the cooking times. So please use the times given in this recipe only as a guide. It may take a little lesser or more time to cook depending on your microwave and your dish.
