Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal Cups are a healthy, portable breakfast or snack, made with ripe bananas, blueberries, and oats, naturally sweetened and high in fiber.

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or almonds (optional, for added crunch)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed (optional, for added nutrition)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Stir in almond milk, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  3. Add the Dry Ingredients: Add rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and chia seeds (or flaxseed). Stir until well combined.
  4. Add the Blueberries and Nuts: Gently fold in blueberries and chopped walnuts (if using). For frozen blueberries, fold them in while still frozen to prevent bleeding into the batter.
  5. Scoop into Muffin Tin: Evenly divide the oatmeal mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Press the mixture down gently.
  6. Bake the Oatmeal Cups: Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are golden and firm to the touch. A toothpick should come out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve immediately or store for later.

Notes

Feel free to swap blueberries with other fruits like strawberries or peaches.To prevent blueberries from sinking, toss them lightly in flour before folding them into the batter.These oatmeal cups can be made vegan by using a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) in place of eggs.
