Baked Oatmeal Cups are wholesome, portable, and customizable breakfast muffins made with rolled oats, fruit, and natural sweeteners. Perfect for busy mornings, meal prep, or snacking, these soft, satisfying cups are freezer-friendly and easy to adapt to any flavor preference.

Ingredients

  • Old-fashioned rolled oats
  • Baking powder
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Salt
  • Eggs
  • Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • Mashed bananas or applesauce
  • Honey or maple syrup
  • Vanilla extract
  • Fresh or frozen berries (optional)
  • Chopped nuts (optional)
  • Mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
  • Shredded coconut (optional)
  • Peanut butter or almond butter (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or silicone cups.
  2. In a large bowl, mix oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, mashed bananas (or applesauce), honey, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients and stir until well mixed.
  5. Fold in desired mix-ins, or divide batter and customize each cup with different additions.
  6. Scoop mixture evenly into muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until tops are golden and set.
  8. Cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use silicone liners or grease well to prevent sticking.
  • Make a variety of flavors by dividing batter and adding different mix-ins to each portion.
  • Sweeten naturally with ripe bananas, maple syrup, or honey.
  • Freeze in batches for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
  • Best made with rolled oats; avoid steel-cut oats which won’t cook through properly.
