Blueberry Oatmeal Cups are made with old fashioned oats and other basic baking ingredients with almond milk and fresh blueberries. Great recipe for meal prep!
My son just started middle school and school starts just too darn early. Breakfast has turned into a meal prep so he can grab something healthy and easy in the mornings as he walks out the door. These Blueberry Oatmeal Cups are really simple to prep on Sunday night and reheat quickly in the microwave. Plus, they taste delicious!

Tips & Tricks
Prep
If you are using these Blueberry Oatmeal Cups, follow the cooking instructions below. Then, let cool and place into sandwich bags to store in the fridge. In the morning, grab one and heat in the microwave for about 40 seconds. These are also freezable! Just defrost in fridge before reheating.
Fruit
Don’t stop at just blueberries. Try any fruit to swap for blueberries. Maybe some juicy blackberries or overripe bananas.
Oats
I have made this recipe using both old fashioned oats and quick oats. I recommend the old fashioned oats but a mix of half old fashioned and half quick oats works great too if you happen to have both on hand.
