I wasn’t one that always liked oatmeal. To be honest I really hated the stuff! So what changed my mind? I think it was the fact that I could change up the flavoring, like in these Bacon Maple Oatmeal Cups, and bake it for an on-the-go breakfast that turned me into an oatmeal lovin’ fool. And the fact that it’s such a healthy way to start the day is a big plus!
My first try at baking oatmeal was in my Maple Bacon Oatmeal Bars, (I think I’m seeing a trend here) which turned out so good that I always keep a stock of them in my freezer. Today’s oatmeal is becoming another favorite and is even easier to make than my first version. Full of healthy ingredients like milk (I use almond milk), eggs, oats, walnuts and bananas, with just a little sweetener from pure maple syrup thrown in, that you know you just can’t go wrong starting your day with these delicious bites. Oh, and for all our gluten-free friends, they’re gluten-free too!
Make them up on the weekend then wrap individually and freeze. They are perfect to grab and go on the way to work or just to pop in the microwave for about 1 to 1-1/2 minutes for a quick healthy breakfast for the kids before getting them off to school. Enjoy!
