I've been searching for a good recipe on Pinterest for breakfasts! Something easy and on the go! This turned out really well and I recommend making it. You can eat it in the car or at your desk.
ALSO - I thought that these were going to be sweeter than they are, so don't be surprised when you bite into one :)
What you need:
- ½ cup applesauce
- 3 mashed bananas
- 1 banana for slicing
- 1 cup cooked quinoa (about ½ cup dry)
- 2 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup almond milk
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon - recommend using more
- 1 apple, peeled and chopped - I kept the peel on turned out great
How to make them:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a muffin tin (I used a cooking spray made with olive oil)
- Cook the quinoa by following the instructions on the package. I used 1/2 cup of Quinoa and 1 cup of water.
- Mix applesauce, mashed banana, almond milk, honey and vanilla in a bowl.
- Mix dry ingredients (quinoa, oats, cinnamon) into the combined wet ingredients.
- Chop up an apple. Mix the apple chunks into the bowl.
- Fill each of the muffin cups to the top with the quinoa mixture. Add a banana slice or two to the top of each (optional)
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then enjoy one warm!
