I have another quick, easy, and healthy breakfast option for you all today that can be gluten free if you use gluten free oats! And they are pumpkin flavored for the season! Hooray for all things pumpkin! 🙂 These cups are so simple and quick to throw together and then you have breakfast in the bag for the rest of the week! (Literally, because you store them in a ziplock bag in the fridge) 🙂 And the great thing is that you get to eat three in one serving. I’m all about volume when I eat.
To start off, preheat your oven to 350 and spray a regular sized muffin tin with non stick spray. I would not recommend using cupcake liners with these. I did the first time and they are so moist that the paper really stuck to them. But of course I still ate them all because they were delicious, and I ate way more paper than I would like to admit… hey, I was in a hurry.
Just add all the ingredients to a mixing bowl and stir briskly until it’s all blended well.
Then divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups.
Throw them in the oven for 20-25 minutes! I love recipes that I don’t have to type out 25 paragraphs of explanation. And I know you don’t want to read it all, so it’s a win win. See, I’m saving you time reading this post, and each morning because your breakfast is already for the week. You’re welcome.
I usually just pop 3 in the microwave for about 45 seconds each morning, scramble a few egg whites on the side, and off I go to work. These would also freeze really well if you wanted to make a couple of batches and pull them out to thaw in the fridge the night before. I have many more flavors of these up my sleeve so stay tuned!
