Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

1/3 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup creamy almond butter (or nut butter of choice)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup diced mixed fruits (e.g., apples, bananas, berries)

Optional toppings: chopped nuts, dried fruits, additional maple syrup

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with parchment cups for easy removal.

    Mix the wet ingredients in a medium bowl: combine almond milk, maple syrup, almond butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.

      In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.

        Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until completely combined. Fold in the diced mixed fruits gently to avoid smashing them.

          Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

            Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast! Top with nuts, dried fruits, or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
