Vital Ingredients

• Old-fashioned oats: Go for the thick kind for just the right bite
• Ripe bananas: The ones with spotted peels work best
• Fresh blueberries: They add pops of yummy flavor
• Quality eggs: They hold everything together perfectly
• Pure vanilla: Makes the natural sweetness even better
• Brown sugar: Brings in hints of caramel

Crafting Your Cups

Getting Ready With Temps:

Let all your stuff reach room temperature, which helps mix things better and bake more evenly.

Working With Bananas:

Squish those ripe bananas until they're totally smooth to get the perfect wet base.

Building Your Mix:

Put everything together bit by bit, giving the oats time to soak up the wet stuff.

Adding Berries:

Stir the blueberries in carefully so they don't break and turn the whole mix purple.

Tasty Combos

Have them warm or cool with your coffee or tea. They're great in lunchboxes for a midday pickup. They go perfectly with your morning fruit drink too.

Different Seasons, Different Flavors

Change up your recipe as the year goes by with other fruits. Try adding pumpkin spice in fall, cranberry orange in winter, or mixed berries in summer.

Keeping Them Fresh

They'll stay good in a sealed container for three days on your counter. You can freeze them between sheets of parchment paper for up to three months. Just thaw them overnight and they'll be perfect.
