In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed banana with the peanut butter, then whisk in the eggs and milk.
In a separate medium size bowl, mix the oats, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the milk mixture and combine. Fold in the chocolate chips.
In a greased muffin pan, spoon about ⅓ cup of the oat mixture per muffin (a little more than ¾ full each).
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Allow cups to cool slightly on a cooling rack before eating. Serve warm.
Notes
Like our baked oatmeal but in cup form! Great for meal prep since theyʼre easy to freeze or grab and go. Lasts for 5 days in the fridge.
A healthier high fiber version of chocolate chip banana muffins or bread.We donʼt recommend making these in advance, the rolled oats absorb the liquid and expand.
Assemble the recipe right before baking for best results.
Serve with fresh fruit, yogurt, jam, or more peanut butter. They are of course great by themselves for a quick and easy on the go snack or meal!
You can also make this recipe in a 9x9 inch baking dish and change the bake time to 35-40 minutes like we did with our berry baked oatmeal recipe.
