Blueberry Baked Oatmeal Cups with Yogurt

August 2, 2020

When I’m living in Paris I start my morning at the gym, then I quickly get ready for the day, and Im out the door by 8 a.m for my pattern-making class. I like to take my breakfast to-go because I don’t have time for a sit down in the morning, and I enjoy my reading + breakfast routine on the metro. These blueberry baked oatmeal cups are so many great things all in one: healthy, easy, dainty and… delicious with coffee! The yogurt filling is smooth and bright, adding that extra layer of texture and flavor. I also just love anything filled with cream… let’s be honest.

These baked oatmeal cups tick all the health boxes

Complex carbohydrates, yes. Protein, yes. Naturally sweetened, yes. Fiber, antioxidants, probiotics, yes, yes, yes. Baked oatmeal is really the perfect way to start your day, especially when it’s paired with thick greek yogurt and filled with nuts and fresh berries.

The ingredients are:

  • oats: complex carbs + fiber
  • oat flour
  • nuts/seeds: healthy fat + protein
  • baking powder
  • cinnamon + nutmeg: natural flavor
  • salt
  • milk
  • honey: natural sweetener + antioxidants
  • eggs: protein
  • coconut oil
  • vanilla extract: natural flavor
  • blueberries: natural sweetener + antioxidants
  • greek yogurt: protein + probiotics
  • sugar in the raw: a sprinkle of sweet crunch, very essential;)

As easy as mix, bake, eat.

Granted this recipe is little more complicated than grabbing a packaged energy bar, but it’s still extremely easy and so much more fulfilling. Just throw all the ingredients into a large bowl and mix until combined. Then, spoon them into a muffin or popover pan and bake for 30 minutes. During the baking process you could be working, getting ready for the day, meal-prepping, etc. When they’re done baking fill them with yogurt, then take some to-go and store the rest.

I like to make a dry ingredient mix and store it in a jar. It’s easy to throw in a bowl, crack a few eggs, drizzle some honey and they’re ready to bake within a few minutes.

Dainty & Delicious

I just couldn’t help myself, I like the food I make and eat to be pretty and worthy of a photo or two. These blueberry baked oatmeal cups are portable and dainty, with a pop of color. Full of flavor and texture, these oatmeal cups are better than all the packaged energy bars. Can you even pronounce the ingredients in those? Because I can’t. These are doughy and dense with that essential creaminess from the yogurt. Every bite comes with a crunch from the nuts and burst of tart berry. Not dry. Not bland. Definitely delicious.

The Yogurt Deal

After the oatmeal cups are done baking, use an apple corer to remove the center of the baked oatmeal, leaving a perfect well for the yogurt. Spoon about two tablespoons into each cup.

I do have a favorite greek yogurt and I never cheat on it with other brands. I use the FAGE Total 2% Greek Yogurt. It’s thick, tart but not sour, and tastes as creamy as full fat yogurt. I like the split cup containers with honey for when you need some extra sweetness in your life, and of course in your yogurt. Visit https://usa.fage/ to discover all the varieties.

Description

These blueberry baked oatmeal cups filled with greek yogurt are healthy, satisfyingly sweet and an easy on the go breakfast.


Scale

Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned oats 

1/2 cup oat flour 

1/2 cup chopped nuts or seeds, in this recipe I used pumpkin seeds

1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

3/4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/3 cups milk of choice, I use almond milk

1/4 cup honey

2 small eggs

1 tablespoons coconut oil or butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup blueberries

2 tablespoons sugar in the raw

1 1/2 cups plain greek yogurt


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375° and grease a 12 muffin pan with butter or coconut oil. 
  2. In a medium sized bowl, combine oats, oat flour, nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder and salt. Or, if you pre-made the dry mix, use 2 cups + 1 tablespoon of that mix. Make sure the ingredients are well mixed in the jar before measuring.
  3. In a separate bowl or in the same bowl as the dry ingredients, add milk, honey, eggs, coconut oil or butter and vanilla extract. Mix the wet and dry ingredients until well combined.
  4. Fold the fresh blueberries into the batter.
  5. Spoon batter into muffin tin and sprinkle each cup with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar in the raw. 
  6. Bake for 30 minutes or until the tops of the oatmeal cups are golden brown. 
  7. Let the oatmeal cups cool completely. Once cooled, use an apple corer to remove the center of cup to create a well for the greek yogurt. 
  8. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of yogurt into each cup. 
  9. Serve immediately with an extra drizzle of honey, put in a to-go box, or store in a container and keep refrigerated.
