These Baked Oatmeal Berry Cups Get an A+ for Breakfast
Need an easy back to school breakfast idea?
Try baking these easy and delicious baked oatmeal cups! It’s basically everything you love in your favorite bowl of oatmeal, all baked in a convenient muffin tin! Such a great idea for a quick weekday morning grab and go breakfast.
Such an adaptable idea!
I added some fresh berries and dried cranberries for my add-ins, but you can definitely customize with other berries, dried fruit, nuts, etc. I had agave on hand for a sweetener, but you can use honey, brown sugar, or your sweetener of choice (these are not very sweet tasting so keep that in mind if more of a sweeter muffin is desired). If almond milk is an issue, use any desired milk.
Easy process for busy people!
I love that this recipe is easy to mix together and doesn’t take a ton of time. To get that breadlike texture, processing some of the oats into a flour using a blender or food processor is an extra step, but that extra step is worth it!

So “Berry” delicious! 🙂
I think baked oatmeal cups would make a great breakfast or a lunch snack in the lunch box for school! Just keep them covered in the fridge and take out as needed. They should stay for about five days in the fridge. Today I warmed one up in the microwave for breakfast and it was YUM!
I love my silicone muffin tins!
Just in case you’re looking for some, I have these from Amazon.com and they’re GREAT. I love that food doesn’t stick like they do to metal sometimes, and muffins easily come out after baking.

Can 2 tablespoons vegetable oil be substituted for coconut oil?
I would assume so, yes. Also, I often sub applesauce for the oil in baked goods with no difference in the end result.
Yes I’m sure that’s fine 👍
I have the same question and also which type of oats to use? Quick or rolled? Thanks!
I used rolled – thanks!
Thank you! Can’t wait to try!
What would be a good egg substitute?
Applesauce.
Lina, quick question. The ingredient list says “1/2 cup rolled oats (blended into powder)”. Do you measure 1/2 cup then blend, or do you need a total amount of 1/2 cup oats blended?
I measured a 1/2 cup then blended. It was about the same after blending. Hope that helps! Thanks
Can Truvia Necter be substituted for Agava?
Yes I’d say use your favorite sweetener – to taste 👍
Looks sooo good! I love oatmeal in the morning but these look so fun 🙂 thanks!!
Sure! Thanks for stopping by 👍
I just finished a shopping trip to Costco and saw a container of these for sale. I almost bought them but thought to myself “I can easily make these and a much healthier version”. Thanks Lina D & Hip2Save!
You’re so welcome – enjoy!
Lina, the silicone muffin tin Your using is it regular sized or mini muffins? I would like to purchase one. I checked out the one You have but it’s currently unavailable so I’m looking into another brand. I also saw your mini muffin pancakes. Another reason why I will be purchasing a silicone muffin tray 🙂 Thank you
