These Baked Oatmeal Cups with add ins make for a hearty and nutritious start to the day!
Oatmeal can be an amazing brunch option if you know how to present it! One of my favorite healthy brunch recipes is to make oven baked oatmeal cups with delicious add ins that will take normal oats to another level of flavor! All other healthy breakfast ideas are more complicated but with this recipe, you can just mix oats with milk, eggs, maple syrup, cinnamon, and then top with your choice of add-ins like fruits, nuts, or chocolate chips. Then pour into muffin tins and bake until set and et voila!
