Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
For the Banana Oat Cups (makes 12 cups):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
3 very ripe bananas, mashed (about 1\u00bd cups)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 large eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or non-dairy)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd cup chopped walnuts or pecans<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd cup blueberries or diced apple<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 tablespoons chia seeds or flaxseed meal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
For Serving:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Greek yogurt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Fresh fruit<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Drizzle of honey or maple syrup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
1. Prep and Preheat:<\/strong> Preheat your oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
2. Mash the Bananas:<\/strong> In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
3. Add Wet Ingredients:<\/strong> Whisk in the eggs, milk, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
4. Add Dry Ingredients:<\/strong> Stir in the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until everything is evenly combined. If using any add-ins, fold them in now. Let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the liquid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
5. Fill the Muffin Tin:<\/strong> Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling them almost to the top. Press down gently to compact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
6. Bake:<\/strong> Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the cups are set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
7. Cool:<\/strong> Let the cups cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
8. Serve or Store:<\/strong> Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Pro-Tips for Banana Oat Cup Perfection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
Use Very Ripe Bananas:<\/strong> The riper, the sweeter and more flavorful. Brown-spotted bananas are ideal. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Let the Mixture Rest:<\/strong> Allowing the oats to soak for 10-15 minutes creates a softer, more cohesive texture. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Grease the Pan Well:<\/strong> These can stick\u2014use non-stick spray or butter generously, or use paper liners. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Customize Add-Ins:<\/strong> Chocolate chips, nuts, berries, or a swirl of nut butter are all delicious. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Make It Vegan:<\/strong> Use flax eggs (2 tablespoons flaxseed meal + 5 tablespoons water) and non-dairy milk. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Make Ahead:<\/strong> These are perfect for meal prep. Make a batch on Sunday and enjoy all week. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Freezer Friendly:<\/strong> Wrap individually and freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or toaster oven. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
