Step 2

Blend rolled oats in a high-powered blender or food processor until flour forms. Flour that's coarse but not fine is fine.

Step 3

Mix the remaining wet and dry ingredients except chocolate chips. Mix until thick and smooth. Stop the blender to scrape the sides with a rubber spatula several times.

Step 6

Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the bread has risen substantially. I do 40 minutes on the dot.

Step 7

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature before slicing and serving (this ensures the slices hold together nicely).
