Tips to Making Baked Oatmeal:
- For this recipe, you can use creamy or chunky peanut butter. I used creamy but it’s totally up to you.
- You can adjust the amount of peanut butter a little too depending on how strong you want the flavor to be. I suggest 2/3 cup but you could go down to 1/2 cup or even up to 3/4 cup.
- I have a sweet tooth and I know! Feel free to decrease the amount of sugar a little if you don’t want yours quite as sweet.
- A large ice cream scoop is the perfect size to distribute the batter between the muffin cavities. You’ll get nice, even-sized results then.
- You can also play around with the amount of chocolate chips. Again… sweet tooth here! So I go with a full cup. I don’t really think it needs anymore than that, but you could easily use less. You could also use mini chocolate chips so that they’re spread out in the batter more.
- Baked oatmeal is naturally easy to freeze but having these already be in individual portion sizes, makes it even easier! After they’re completely cool, just wrap each one individually in plastic wrap, place in a freezer bag and freeze. When you’re ready to eat them, place in refrigerator the night before to thaw.
- I prefer eating baked oatmeal warm but you could definitely eat it cold if that’s what you like. I just pop it in the microwave for 30-45 seconds and then I either eat it like a muffin as I’m heading out the door or I put it in a bowl and pour a little milk over it.
- These are also delicious served warm with a little honey drizzled over them. That’s my husband’s favorite way to enjoy them.
- These should be stored in the refrigerator until you’re ready to eat them.
