Oats are the cornerstone of the Raspberry Bliss Oat Cups, providing a plethora of health benefits. Rich in soluble fiber, particularly beta-glucans, oats play a crucial role in lowering cholesterol levels and improving heart health. They also help regulate blood sugar levels, making them an excellent choice for those managing diabetes.

Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (for added fiber and omega-3s)

Instructions
 

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

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using). Mix well until all the wet ingredients are fully incorporated.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and chia seeds until well combined.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, ensuring everything is thoroughly combined. Be careful not to overmix.

          Fold in Raspberries: Gently fold in the raspberries, taking care not to break them up too much.

            Fill Muffin Tin: Divide the oat batter evenly among the muffin tin slots, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

              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 Serve: Allow the oat cups to cool for a few minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
