Customizable Baked Oatmeal Cups
Customizable Baked Oatmeal Cups make an easy and filling, healthy breakfast that is perfect for busy mornings and totally customizable with your favorite toppings!
I love baked oatmeal! I usually make it in a pan but today, I decided to make it in muffin cups which are perfect for back to school. This is our last year of having no kids in school but still, mornings are busy around our home. Troy and I both work and getting out the door quickly is hard.
When baking up a pan of these, you can totally customize the toppings to whatever you and your family like. If your daughter likes blueberries, add some of those to hers. If you son is a fan of apples and cinnamon, make a couple of those. If you love coconut and chocolate chips, toss some of those toppings on your baked oatmeal cups. The base is the same for all of the cups and the toppings vary which is actually a very simple way to make these.
When adding your toppings, some can be added before baking and some should wait until afterwards. The coconut and chocolate chips are perfect sprinkled on before. The apples/cinnamon and the blueberries can be done ahead of time. If you are using strawberries, peanut butter, bananas, etc. wait until the baked oatmeal cups come out of the oven to add your toppings.
