Hearty cups bursting with banana and blueberry, perfect for breakfast or as a wholesome snack.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
02 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
03 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
04 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

→ Wet Ingredients

05 - 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2-3 bananas)
06 - 1 large egg
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
09 - 2/3 cup almond milk or preferred milk

→ Mix-ins

10 - 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 175°C and grease standard muffin tin with baking spray or line with paper cases.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, blend mashed bananas, egg, honey, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk thoroughly until well incorporated.
03 - Add rolled oats, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon to the wet mixture. Mix until evenly combined.
04 - Carefully fold in the blueberries, taking care to avoid breaking them, especially if using frozen fruit.
05 - Spoon the oat batter into the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Optionally, add a few extra blueberries on top.
06 - Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean. When using frozen berries, extend baking time by several minutes as needed.
07 - Let oatmeal cups cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before storing.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For the best texture, let the oatmeal cups cool fully before storing to prevent moisture and sogginess.
02 - Frozen blueberries should be folded in gently without thawing to minimize batter discoloration.
03 - Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
