Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups breakfast oats preferably rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 bananas, ripe and mashed
  • 2 Tbs honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • ½ cup craisins
  • ½ cup chopped nuts of your choice, I like pecans or walnuts
  • cup strawberry, quartered, fresh or frozen

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F. Prepare a 12 hole muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients - oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
  • In a separate bowl combine all the liquids - milk, egg, mashed bananas, honey and vanilla until thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the prepared oats. Use a spatula and mix well. Stir in craisins and chopped nuts.
  • Scoop batter into prepared muffin pan. Top generously with sliced strawberry and pop into oven.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until the oatmeal starts to looks golden. Check by inserting toothpick and it should come out clean. If not allow to bake for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and place on cooling rack for 5 minutes. Let's eat!

Notes

Tip 1: This recipe is easy to customize to suit your taste. Simply swap out the strawberries and use your favorite berries instead. 
Tip 2: If using frozen strawberries, do not thaw. Simply rinse them, gently pat dry and slice. If using frozen blueberries, or raspberries, do not thaw - simply rinse, pat dry and use. 
Tip 3: Lightly toasting the nuts before mixing in will give the cups an additional crunch. Yum!
