~Yields 12 Muffins~

Ingredients:

  • 2 Large Ripe Bananas, Mashed
  • 2 Large Eggs, Lightly Beaten
  • 1 Tablespoon of Pure Maple Syrup (like this) or Raw Honey (like this)
  • 1 Teaspoon of Pure Vanilla Extract (like this)
  • 2 1/2 Cups of Gluten-Free Old Fashioned Rolled Oats (like this)
  • 1 Tablespoon of Ground Cinnamon (like this)
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoon of Baking Powder (like this)
  • 1 1/2 Cups of Unsweetened Almond Milk or Coconut Milk
  • 2 Cups of Fresh Blueberries or Raspberries (or mix 1 cup of each)

NOTE: Invest in organic ingredients to ensure you aren’t consuming harmful chemicals in your food like pesticides and herbicides. 

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  2. Prepare a muffin tin by coating the cups with a light layer of coconut oil. Or, you can use muffin liners. (I highly recommend investing in reusable silicone liners like these to reduce waste and save loads of money!)
  3. Mix the bananas, eggs, maple syrup or raw honey and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Set aside.
  4. Combine the oats, cinnamon and baking powder in a medium bowl and mix well.
  5. Add the oat mixture to the banana/egg mixture and mix well.
  6. Add the almond milk and mix well.
  7. Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared muffin cups.
  8. Top each muffin evenly with the berries.
  9. Bake for 26-30 minutes until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick is inserted in the center and comes out clean.

Store any uneaten oatmeal cups in the fridge as you enjoy them throughout the week. If there are any leftover after 5-6 days (which never happens in my house), put them in the freezer to maintain freshness.
