Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats (uncooked)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup almond milk (or your milk of choice)
- ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
Fruits
- 1 cup frozen blackberries
To Serve
- Yogurt of choice
- Fresh berries
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease 6 jumbo muffin cups or 6 ramekins to prevent sticking and prepare for baking.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, stir together the rolled oats, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Add the unsweetened applesauce and almond milk, mixing well until combined to form the oatmeal batter.
- Prepare the Blackberries: In a separate bowl, gently toss the frozen blackberries with cornstarch and vanilla extract. This helps thicken the berry filling during baking and enhances flavor.
- Assemble the Cups: Divide the blackberry mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups or ramekins. Then spoon the oat mixture over the berries, covering them evenly.
- Bake: Place the cups in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the oatmeal is set and lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the oatmeal cups to cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite yogurt and fresh berries on the side for a delicious finishing touch.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice, such as cow’s milk or oat milk.
- For a sweeter version, add a tablespoon of maple syrup or honey to the batter.
- Ensure blackberries are well coated in cornstarch to avoid excess moisture during baking.
- These oatmeal cups can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
- Use fresh blackberries if available, just reduce cornstarch slightly to avoid thickening too much.
