webpack.config.js

const path = require('path')
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin')

  entry: {
    index: path.resolve(process.cwd(), './src/ejs/index.ejs')
  },
  output : {
    filename: '[name].html',

      {
        test: /\.ejs$/,
        use: [
          'html-loader',
          {
            loader: 'ejs-html-loader',
            options: {

Expected cause

Maybe the return value of the compile function has changed from ejs@3 and deps is no array.

I have a same probrem.

This is due to this commit. https://github.com/mde/ejs/commit/12beb5ccc08ac1fc5240128f7d5dba2e82acf57f

Please remove to return deps like my pullrequest.

（I'm sorry, my English is not good.）
