Quick make-ahead breakfasts, like these peach almond oatmeal muffins, nourish you and get you on the road fast.
I originally made these along with Banana Oatmeal Cups and Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins. They are all gluten-free, healthy and such a good start to the day. Not to mention they are great for snacks too – no artificial ingredients, little sweetener, I used either maple syrup or brown sugar, and plenty of fiber and vitamins from the fruit.
If you are looking for something healthy and quick for breakfast, give these oatmeal cups a try. I know you’ll love them as much as we all do. (And if you eat these a few days after baking (if there are any left) they remind me of an almond paste-filled muffin. Oh yum – think I’ll go get one now!
