Ingredients

3½ cups rolled oats
2 eggs whisked
1 large granny smith apple peeled, cored and diced (about 1 ¼ cups)
1¾ cups vanilla almond milk
¾ cup and 2 Tablespoons brown sugar divided
⅓ cup applesauce
1½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp allspice

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Prepare a muffin pan by spraying it with cooking spray.
Mix the rolled oats, eggs, granny smith apple, vanilla almond milk, ¾ cup of divided brown sugar, applesauce, baking powder, cinnamon, and allspice in a large bowl.
Pour the oatmeal mixture into the muffin pan and sprinkle about ¼ teaspoon of the remaining brown sugar on top of each muffin. You should have about enough for all your muffins.
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Carefully remove the muffins from the pan and let cool.
Plate your muffins and serve either warm or cold.

Notes

Storage:

To Store: Oatmeal cups may be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
To Freeze: To freeze, bake and cool oatmeal cups. Cover tightly and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature. Warm to your liking.
To Reheat: Reheat in the microwave or oven to warm.

Tips:

When you’re dividing the batter between the muffin cups, make sure you have both liquid AND oats/apples in each. The batter is very liquid-y!
Make sure to spray the muffin pan liberally with non-stick spray, otherwise your baked apple oatmeal cups may stick to the pan.
Any type of milk will work in this recipe (dairy or non-dairy milk).
