Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling:
- 1 cup vanilla or plain Greek yogurt
- Mixed berries, diced kiwi, and sliced banana
- Chia seeds or crushed nuts, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F) and lightly spray a muffin tin with oil.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, mashed banana, peanut butter, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
- Divide the mixture evenly between 10 muffin cavities (about 2 heaping tablespoons each). Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides to form a thin, even layer.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool completely in the tin, then carefully loosen and remove the cups using a butter knife.
- When ready to eat, add about 2 tablespoons of yogurt into each cup, top with your choice of fruit and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Enjoy!
