Notes
Substitutions: You can substitute ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice for the apple pie spice. You can substitute any fruit puree for the mashed banana (I actually used 2 banana applesauce pouches because my bananas were not ripe). I used whole milk, but you can use any nut milk or even skim milk. // Storage Tips: Store baked and cooled oatmeal cups in an air-tight container for 2-3 days. To freeze, wrap each oatmeal cup in plastic wrap and store in a zip top freezer bag in the freezer. Remove from freezer and reheat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or until warm.
