Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I make these oatmeal cups vegan?
Absolutely! Replace the eggs with flax eggs (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water per egg) and use a plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.
Are these gluten-free?
Yes, as long as you use certified gluten-free oats.
Can I make them sugar-free?
You can omit the maple syrup or honey and rely solely on mashed banana or applesauce for natural sweetness.
Can I double the recipe?
Definitely! Just be sure to use two muffin tins or bake in batches.
Can I prep the batter ahead of time?
For best texture, bake immediately after mixing. However, you can mix the dry and wet ingredients separately the night before and combine them in the morning.
