ingredients
- 2 1/2 tablespoons ground flax seed
- 1 tablespoon water,
- 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 tablespoons plant-based milk,
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons vegan dark chocolate chips (raisins for sugar free),
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Step 2
To make the flax egg, mix the ground flax seed and water in a small bowl and put aside for about 5 minutes.
Step 3
In the meantime, mix the wet ingredients (mashed bananas, milk, vanilla) in a bowl. Add the flax egg once it has soaked up the water a bit, and the texture resembles that of an egg.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix the oats, dark chocolate chips (or raisins if you would like to keep it free of added sweeteners), cinnamon and baking soda.
Step 5
Mix the wet and dry ingredients together, and divide the mixture between six greased muffin molds.
Step 6
Bake for about 25 minutes, until golden on top and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Step 7
Cool the oatmeal cups in the molds. Then remove and serve with nut butter and/or fresh fruits.
Step 8
Store the leftovers in the fridge and reheat before consuming. You can also freeze them for a quick breakfast when you are in a rush or have an empty fridge after traveling!
