Say hello to the coziest fall breakfast recipe imaginable. And one that you want to prep for breakfast and snacking ASAP fam!!
These cutie baked oatmeal cups are ones to save because they’re so easy to make and they are healthy, delicious and super kid-friendly.

Little does he know that actual cake is 100000% not what mama is making him ha 🙂

These will be your new go fam!

This sounds amazing. Question regarding grating a pear. Do you use a pretty green/hard pear so it’s not super juicy or mushy yet? There’s always a fine line w pears, and I’m imagining grating a really juicy pear could be kind of messy/tough? Thanks! Look forward to making these!

These are divine!!!! I was worried they would be mushy and not cook all the way because of the pear, but that didn’t happen. I used a Bartlett pear that was just getting soft, and the muffins turned out wonderfully!
Rachel
YAY!!!

These are hands-down our favorite oatmeal cups! They are so moist thanks to the pear. The pear is subtle enough to let the banana flavor come through. It actually tastes like a delicious banana bread to us!
Rachel
YAYYYY!!! x

This recipe is amazing. So tender moist and just sweet enough. My only criticism is the muffin liners are unnecessary. It was nightmare trying to get the muffins out of the papers. I’ve made many different muffin cup recipes and never had them call for liners. Just spray the muffin tins with EVOO and they pop right out after cooling. Recipe is perfection though!
Rachel
good to know!! i get it – i just like the liners when i get lazy lol!!
