How To Make Individual Oat and Banana Cups

Start by preheating your oven to 375° and greasing six 4-ounce glass ramekins. (P.S. I grabbed these ADORABLE ramekins from Amazon and I am just in love with the design!)

Note: this recipe is best made in ramekins, but if you don’t have any on hand we’ve had some PPP readers say they’ve made this in a muffin tin and have loved the result.

Next, in a large bowl, mash three very ripe bananas until they are fairly smooth. The riper and smoother the bananas the better! Add your eggs, oats, almond milk, maple syrup, baking soda, and salt. Mix well – you want to make sure your eggs get totally mixed.

Place the greased ramekins onto a baking sheet and pour the batter evenly into each dish. Sprinkle 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips overtop of the mixture.

Bake for 20 minutes until set and serve warm.

    These did not work out for me. There was far too much liquid, it overwhelmed the oats and even with extra baking time they never set or fully baked. Just a slimy mess. I had to throw them out. They smelled really good, so disappointing

    • Bridgett - PPP Team says

      So sorry to hear! We haven’t had any problems with that ourselves. If you try them again, I would probably start with less milk. You can always add more as you mix it. Hope that helps! 🙂

    5 stars
    I have larger 7oz ramekins so I:
    -doubled the recipe
    -added blueberries on top instead of chocolate
    -ended up cooking 40 minutes

    So, so good! This will become a staple breakfast for me.
