Recently I’ve been trying to follow a healthier eating plan, and my mini baked oats with blueberries and cinnamon are a good breakfast choice.
They are also very versatile, just swap the fruit according to what you have. I make these without any added sugar, and I find them pretty filling when served with fresh fruit or natural yoghurt. If you want you can add sugar to your taste too of course.
Individual baked oats are so easy to make in a muffin tin and are perfect for breakfast on the run. They are like little oatmeal cups!
You can vary the fruit of course, you could use strawberries, bananas, raisins, dates, chopped apple or whatever you want to use up.
Make a batch and take them for breakfast during the week, so easy when you prepare them in advance! Or pop them in a lunchbox for a snack to keep you on track.
At only two Freestyle Smartpoints each, you can have these as part of your WW freestyle healthy eating plan.

Ooh nice idea, sort of ready made porridge for breakfast. Great for when you’re in a hurry, which is most of the time in my case 😉

I love these – Harry’s a huge fan too – and bite size like you’ve done them are perfect for baby led weaning. Or toddler led weaning even! I must make some more – thanks for including the link to my weaning ones

These simple little bakes would definitely hit the spot for a quick, grabbed breakfast. As it gets warmer this look looks like a good idea for those that like their porridge goodness to start the day. Lovely, Lucy. 🙂

Thank you Kellie, I amazed myself at how much healthier these are than my usual bakes!
Becca @ Amuse Your Bouche says
Ooh yum. I love the idea of serving these in a bowl with a dollop of yogurt on top – like an indulgent dessert, but healthy enough for breakfast! 🙂
bakingqueen74 says
That does sound good Becca!
