Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/3 cup maple syrup or honey

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds optional)

1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional, for a sweeter touch)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or line it with cupcake liners.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, maple syrup (or honey), eggs, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir them together until everything is evenly coated. Fold in the mixed berries, nuts, and chocolate chips (if using).

          Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the oatmeal mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full to allow for rising.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Cool and Enjoy: Allow the oatmeal cups to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. These can be served warm or at room temperature.

                Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for longer storage. Reheat in the microwave for breakfast on the go!
