Bakes Apple Oatmeal Cups

28 Comments

Are you looking for some easy grab-and-go breakfasts ideas?  If so, these Baked Apple Oatmeal Cups may be just what you need.

Think of these as a bowl of oatmeal on the go.  Or as a bowl of oatmeal in muffin form!

They dense, chewy muffins are super easy to trow together and taste extra delicious with a schmear or peanut butter or cream cheese.

Try making them when you do your meal prep and then storing them in an airtight container (in the fridge) for those busy weekday mornings!

Baked Apple Oatmeal Cups

Yield: Makes 12 muffins

Prep Time:10 minutes

Cook Time:30 minutes

Total Time:40 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup organic buttermilk (you can sub any milk you prefer)
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup applesauce (I used cinnamon applesauce)
  • 1 large apple, chopped (1 heaping cup)
  • 1/4 cup raisins

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.  Spray a 12-count muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray or coat with coconut oil and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl combine oats, baking powder, cinnamon, buttermilk, eggs, and applesauce.  Mix together until everything is well incorporated.
  3. Add in chopped apple and raisins and gently toss until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  4. Divide batter amongst all 12 muffin cups and pop in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until they have set though and are golden brown on top. Cool and enjoy.

*I like to store these in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge.  They will last a good week stored this way.

      These oatmeal cups do tend to lean on the drier side… maybe try adding a little more milk if you prefer them to be a bit more moist.

      Itried these as they looked fantastic when Dani did them. The recipe was easy and they looked ok but I found them tasteless. I am from England and there was no guidance on oven temperature for us but I found a conversion chart and it said 350 was equal to 175 on our ovens so thats what I did. Maybe that was wrong. I would like to enjoy these because they are so easy to make so I will try some variations like trying vanilla extract in . Perhaps I cut my apples up too finely. However I will try again but would appreciate your advice. Thank you for the videos .keep them coming.

      Bummer! I’m not sure what could have gone wrong. They are not super sweet so if you are used to a sweeter flavor that may be the problem. If you like more moisture you can try more milk. And definitely do try to cut the apples so they are a bit chunky. Hope that helps.

    Thank you Dami, my muffins turned out fabulous! I could not resist I ate 2! I used almond milk (thanks yet another excellent recipe) and I used Greek yogurt instead of applesause. I also added cranberries and chai seeds and toped with a few sliced almonds cause i was feeling fancy! Moist and not dry at all. I love your channel, thank you!

    Dani, you are a delight to watch and an inspiration. Love your energy served with a slice of humor. I made these hoping for a little more something. I am wondering if the buttermilk you use produces the chemistry needed to get these working. I am soooooo allergic to milk so i added almond milk. I did go crazy and made the topping for that little extra something. I will play with the ingredients like maybe tossing the apples with lemon, extra cinnamon, vanilla. And i think maybe could cut my apple a little smaller? I did follow your ingredients with the exception of the milk. Your batch seemed to produce more. Looking forward to the next batch.
