Description
Warm, cozy, and easy to make, these oatmeal cups are perfect for busy mornings or as a healthy snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups milk (or a dairy-free alternative)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)
- 2 apples, diced
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup raisins (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, stir together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, maple syrup (or honey), diced apples, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until well combined. If desired, fold in raisins and chopped nuts.
- Divide the mixture evenly into the muffin tin cups, filling each cup almost to the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Let the oatmeal cups cool for a few minutes, then remove them from the tin and let them cool on a rack. Serve warm or cool completely before storing.
