These delicious Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins are a grab-and-go breakfast made with oats, almond milk, monk fruit, Greek yogurt, and eggs. They are flavored with fresh lemon and studded with juicy, sweet blueberries for a wholesome snack or breakfast option.

I’m always looking for quick breakfast and snack options, and these blueberry oatmeal muffins are a hit for both kids and adults. You can make them on Sunday and they reheat perfectly throughout the week.

Baked Blueberry Lemon Oatmeal Muffin Cups make for a healthy way to start the day! They’re hearty and delicious, free of all refined flours and sugars, and perfect for meal prep. These are nutritious and easy to make – you only need one bowl. They will quickly become a family favorite.

Think of these baked blueberry lemon oatmeal cups as a muffin on a mission. They are dense, hearty, and lightly sweetened, providing you with a muffin you can feel good about eating for breakfast.

If this recipe seems familiar, it’s because they are a slight twist on my baked apple oatmeal cups, which have become a reader favorite. And if you love these, you’ll also enjoy my banana chip oatmeal muffin cups,  pumpkin spice oatmeal muffin cups, and my carrot cake baked oatmeal muffin cups.

Not surprising, that everyone loves the baked muffin cups so much, they are easy to make, super delicious and rather convenient as well.

Are Baked Oatmeal Muffin Cups, Oatmeal Or Muffins?

Both are correct. These are oatmeal and a muffin. You will notice that they’re not light and fluffy like a pastry shop muffin. They’re hearty and dense like a bowl of oatmeal, but more convenient.

Ingredients In Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins

You need 11 simple ingredients for my baked oatmeal cups. Each is important!

  • Oats: Old-fashioned whole rolled oats work best for this recipe.
  • Salt: Salt adds flavor.
  • Baking Powder: Baking powder prevents the oatmeal cups from tasting too dense.
  • Milk: Unsweetened vanilla almond milk will soften the oats and help make these muffins moist. I like using almond milk, but any milk will work.
  • Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt adds protein and takes the place of butter or oil. You can use mashed banana or applesauce instead of Greek yogurt for a dairy-free option, but you won’t get that extra boost of protein.
  • Eggs: Provide protein and structure.
  • Lemon juice + zest: Fresh lemon gives these oatmeal muffin cups a lovely lemon flavor.
  • Monk fruit: Monk fruit sweetens and flavors these baked oatmeal cups. If preferred, coconut sugar is a great substitute.
  • Blueberries: Stir in blueberries for plenty of antioxidants and natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Sliced almonds: Almonds provide a nice crunch and even more nutrients. To make these nut-free, you can leave them out.

How Do You Make Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins?

What’s better than an easy one-bowl recipe that comes together super quick?! To make these baked oatmeal cups, simply add all of the ingredients – oatmeal, salt, baking powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt (or mashed banana or applesauce), eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, monk fruit (or another sugar) to a bowl.

Mix everything together until you’ve got a rich, hearty batter, then stir in the blueberries and almonds. Divide the batter evenly in a 12-cup muffin pan.

Pop the muffin pan in your 350-degree Fahrenheit oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is just slightly golden. Let them cool and then enjoy!

Baked Oatmeal Cup Variations

We all crave a little variety sometimes. Try these different flavor and add-in options!

  • Flavor: Instead of lemon juice and zest, give orange juice and zest a whirl.
  • Fruit options: Instead of blueberries, you could use cranberries, raspberries or chopped strawberries.
  • Mix-in options: Add some mini chocolate chips, unsweetened shredded coconut or dried fruit for a fun twist.

Notes

*You can sub in applesauce or mashed banana for the Greek yogurt if you want to keep the oat cups dairy-free.
**Monk fruit is a plant-derived, calorie-free sweetener. This is the one I am using. If you prefer, you can use coconut sugar or really any granulated sugar instead of the monk fruit.
***I like to store these muffins in an airtight container in the fridge where they will happily last up to one week. 
****To reheat the muffins, you can slice them in half and place them in the toaster oven or pop them in the microwave for 20-40 seconds.

    Is the sweetener 1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp? The recipe doesn’t say 1/4 what 🙂
    And if using Truvia, is it the same amount as the monkfruit?
    These do look good!

      Hi Ellen! Sorry about that, I just adjusted the recipe and yes! The measurement should be 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons. I have never baked with Truvia but my guess is that measurements would be the same.Enjoy!!

    Hey Dani
    To make this Vegan could I substitute a couple of flax eggs for the chicken eggs?
    I obviously would use the plant based milk and yogurt as well.
    These do look delicious and I’m looking forward to making them!

      HI Peg! I haven’t tried this myself yet, but flax/chia eggs usually work well in recipes like this so my guess is that they would turn out great. If you decide to try, I’d love to hear how it goes.

      Dear Danny I really love your recipes, thank you so much, you are a blessing… I did try the banana oat. But they were really dry. Maybe it’s to much oat. I would like them more moist though. I really loved the almond Joy ones. Thank you!

    I saw this recipe when looking for low calorie foods because I’ve just started dieting. I wanted something with oatmeal that I would be able to eat (I do NOT like oatmeal porridge, but oatmeal cookies or oatmeal in bread is fine) and this looks good. Blueberries are hard to get where I live (usually they’re frozen and expensive) but I can replace them with strawberries.
    However, when trying to print this recipe, I had to click a few times and the screen went from page to page. Eventually the printed recipe contained more than I wanted on the three pages that printed. I was not happy.
    So I did copy/paste to my Word equivalent and was able to print on one page.
    Hope recipe turns out okay, if so, I’ll be back for more.

    I’ve had to substitute with maple syrup and it makes the muffin really fragrant when baked.

    I love, love these oatmeal cups! I was recently diagnosed with Diabetes and having to find more options that are healthier for snacks and breakfasts. I made the apple ones first and then the lemon blueberry, though all I had at the time was Swerve. They came out good but on the bland side though a dab of peanut butter definitely livened them up. I ordered the monk fruit that is actually used and it added just the right amount of sweetness. Grab and go and so delicious! Thank you for giving healthy alternatives for all of us who need it!

        Wow! This muffins look great! I would like to bake them for my 2 year old daughter but I am not so sure if monk fruit is that suitable or healthy for small children. I woul like them to be low sugar though… Is there a substitute other than cocounat sugar I could use? If I replace the Joghurt with apple sauce, do I get to use a bit less of sugar?

          Monk fruit is safe for children but if you prefer not to use it, you can swap in any granulated sugar you like at a 1:1 ratio. Hope that helps!

        Hi Dani! I’m a recent subscriber to your YouTube channel and Pinterest follower, love all of your content!

        I’ve made these delicious lemon blueberry oat cups, and wondered if I can add protein powder to the recipe, and if there are any adjustments (same qt for banana choc chip oat muffins)?

        My husband eats these as a post workout recovery, and protein is only thing missing. He’s not too keen on apple muffins, and I saw your recipe for apple protein muffins, so I wondered if I could just add in protein powder to the other two recipes?

        Thanks in advance!

You can always start with adding a scoop or two of protein powder to the batter and then see how it goes. I will for sure let you know if I get the chance to experiment with this. And please let me know if you do as well.

    Used banana vs yogurt because that is what I had, and had to use frozen wild blueberries (which are smaller). In order to avoid excess moisture I used a technique I learned from Cooks Country. Thaw the blueberries on paper towels then gently blot with additional paper towels. Also used Serve as the sweetener. The cups came out perfect! They were even BETTER the next morning! Hubby ate them cold, I sliced in half and toasted in a pan with a little butter. Mmm, Mmm, Mmm!

    Delicious! These are great to grab and go – a bowl of oatmeal in a muffin. What a great idea!

    I replaced half the blueberries with wild cranberries to reduce the natural sugar content since blueberries are sweeter than cranberries. I’m always on the lookout for extremely low glycemic recipes to lower my husband’s cholesterol, and I’ve been using monk fruit for over a year now. With the less sweet cranberries I found the muffins could be sweeter, so next time I’ll increase the monk fruit. And of course, oatmeal is one of the best foods when combatting cholesterol, and for adding more fibre to our diet.

      Susan, You used unsweetened cranberries, meaning raw fresh cranberries? That’s a good idea. Sweetened with apple juice cranberries are very sweet and the tartness of raw cranberries might be really great in muffins.

    Made these today and everything was fine except they are not even the least bit sweet. I substituted stevia for the monk fruit sweetener which may explain my disappointment. Hard to find an acceptable replacement for sugar, especially if price is considered.

      Hi Beja, I guess that makes sense since these muffins are meant to be more like a bowl of oats on the go instead of a bakery style muffin. You could always experiment with adding more sweetener if you prefer!

    Brilliant recipe!!! Youtube suggested the video for this recipe and I’m so glad I watched it because my oh my these ‘muffins’ are amazing! They really do taste like oatmeal, but extra delicious and flavorful oatmeal with such a soft and moist texture. I substituted chopped walnuts for the almond slices, glad I didn’t leave the nuts out, because the muffin really does benefit from that extra crunch. Adding this recipe to one of my regulars. Thank you Dani! 🙂

      My lime tree gave me way too many limes at once and after giving them to neighbors, I still had about 50! I subbed the lime for lemon and went a bit heavy on the zest and juice. Delicious and tangy! A great afternoon snack to hold me through a workout.

    I made these using fresh blueberries. A winner! Just as good out of the freezer. I’m putting them into heavy rotation. Love the combination. Not dry. So good!

      I would suggest spraying the liners before adding the batter! That should do the trick.

    I just found you and am eagerly looking forward to trying some of your healthy alternative recipes! I am very much into health in all aspects of my life which brings me to my comment. I think it would be an great educational piece if you would mention the health hazards of some things you use in your recipes such as Teflon coated pans/bakeware. Most ppl don’t extend their knowledge past the healthy ingredients in a recipe. Seeing as I have only looked at a couple of your recipes, I am not sure what other products/tools you use in your recipes that are not conducive to our health? This recipe is clean and healthy but baking it in Teflon just added toxins to an otherwise healthy recipe. Because I developed allergies to chemicals and environmental toxins, I was forced to research EVERYTHING and realized I was eating very healthy but using MANY everyday products that were toxic. Just would Ike to possibly awaken others to areas of their lives that are making them sick and they don’t even know it. Thank you!

    Just made these. I used 2% milk, smashed banana, coconut sugar and frozen wild blueberries. I cut back on the sweetener a bit as the super ripe (frozen and thawed) banana would have enough sweetness to help. I have monkfruit sweetener, but just decided to use the coconut this time. I love how I can probably do some fun variations on this in the future. I was going to add in some vanilla extract, but went with a half scoop of vanilla plant protein powder instead. I think I will do a full scoop next time.
    Husband and I loved them! Thanks.

    These were yummy! I made some for myself and some for a friend with a new baby meal train. I didn’t use almonds, and the recipe made 21 muffins for me – only 1 WW point each! The texture is very oatmealy – more moist than I was expecting. 🙂

    Thanks! This is an easy & delicious recipe. I halved the ingredients resulting in 6 muffins and will definitely make these again. I subbed with what I had on hand: applesauce, plain almond milk, dried cranberries and granulated sugar
