These Strawberries & Cream Oatmeal Cups are a delightful and wholesome breakfast or snack option. Made with rolled oats, fresh strawberries, and a creamy blend of milk, cream, and applesauce, these baked oatmeal cups are naturally sweetened with honey and flavored with cinnamon and vanilla. They bake up soft and golden, perfect for a grab-and-go treat topped with sliced almonds and an extra drizzle of cream or honey.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 oatmeal cups

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ cup cream, plus more for drizzling
  • ½ cup applesauce
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Fruit and Toppings

  • 1 ½ cups chopped strawberries
  • Sliced almonds, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Muffin Tin: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin thoroughly with nonstick baking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and kosher salt until evenly combined.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, applesauce, and honey until smooth. Then stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.
  4. Mix Batter: Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and gently stir until just combined to avoid overmixing. Fold in the chopped strawberries evenly throughout the mixture.
  5. Divide and Bake: Spoon the oatmeal mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup nearly full. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the oatmeal cups are set and golden brown on top.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature with a drizzle of cream and a sprinkle of sliced almonds. Optionally, add extra honey, Greek yogurt, or nut butter as toppings for added richness and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute the rolled oats for gluten-free oats to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • Feel free to swap the strawberries for other berries like blueberries or raspberries depending on season and preference.
  • These oatmeal cups store well and can be refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds before serving for a warm breakfast treat.
  • For a vegan version, replace eggs with a flax or chia egg and use plant-based milk and cream alternatives.
