Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cups
Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cups are individual baked cups made with rolled oats, cinnamon, flaxseed, mashed banana, peanut butter, and maple syrup. They combine wholesome ingredients with mini chocolate chips for a soft, chewy breakfast or snack option that can be stored refrigerated or frozen and reheated as needed.
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats old fashioned
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups milk I like using unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 2 Tablespoons Flaxseed ground
- 2 banana about 1/2 cup, mashed
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips divided (dairy-free, if needed)
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 12-cup muffin tin with silicone liners. Paper liners work too. Spray liners with non-stick spray.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
- Mix web ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together almond milk and flaxseed. Let sit for about 5 minutes before adding remaining wet ingredients: mashed banana, maple syrup, peanut butter and vanilla.
- Combine: Pour wet ingredients into the large bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir to combine and fold in 1/8 cup of chocolate chips.
- Fill muffin tin: Scoop mixture evenly into muffin tin with liners and top each cup with remaining mini chocolate chips.
- Bake: Bake 30-35 minutes or until the center of the cups has set and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Store: Allow cups to cool completely before transferring to a storage container and placing them in the fridge or freezer. Cups will last up to a week in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer.
Notes
- Warm individual oatmeal cups in the microwave wrapped in a paper towel for 30 to 60 seconds for best texture.
- To reheat in a toaster oven, cut the cup in half and heat at low temperature (250-300°F) for 5-6 minutes until warm throughout.
- Frozen cups can be thawed overnight in the fridge or cooked directly from frozen in short increments until hot.
