Vegan Baked Oatmeal Cups {oil-free, GF}

Individual vegan baked oatmeal cups, made portable by baking in a muffin tin! The oatmeal cups are are vegan, gluten-free and oil-free.

In an age of ever-changing “it” ingredients, I give thanks for oats.

Cheap, nutritious, straightforward-to-find, filling, satisfying, versatile, and loved by children and adults alike, oats are tried and true.

Portable oat packets, and, more recently, disposable cups of quick oats, have been around for awhile (oh how I loved maple instant oats in my childhood, a constant for all of our family camping trips), but they still are still far short of portability perfection.

For example, it’s difficult to drive or walk with a cup of oats. You also need hot water or milk. A spoon is also important, although toddlers may contest this point.

As a solution, I present portable, perfectly-portioned,individual baked oatmeal.

Customize these any which way with toppings and/or stir-ins of all kinds. You cannot go wrong.

These portable porridge minis aresmashing: straightforward-to-make, quick-to-bake, convenient (think breakfast, snacks, pre- ,post-, or mid-workout fuel, hiking, biking, camping, traveling, and more), make-ahead, seriously satisfying, satisfying…I’ll stop there. Just make them. You’ll see. And because these do not have any eggs, you can tote these lovelies around for a good long while without worries of spoiling.
