Mini baked oatmeal bites

Pancakes? No.
Waffles? No.
Cereal? No.
Eggs? No.

Sometimes it's so hard to decide what to make for The kids for breakfast.
This morning, I woke up on a mission, make something new and something they will like.
After seeing a few pictures of oatmeal bakes on pinterest, I came up with this.

Dry:
2 cups rolled oats
1 tbsp Cinnamon
2 tbsp flax meal
2 tbsp mini dark chocolate chips

Wet:
1 whole egg
1-1 1/2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 tsp vanilla

(you can adjust as needed, I usually don't measure, but go by how it looks)

Mix dry and wet separately.
Line a muffin tin with silicone cups and pour the dry about 3/4 full in each.
Pour wet over the oats until they are pretty covered but not floating. (this is the kind of go by how it looks)
Top with strawberry slices and banana slices. (I added the banana after I took the picture)
Bake in a preheated 375 oven for about 15 min.
Every oven is different so keep an eye on them, they will puff up nicely and be "like a oatmeal muffin".

Kids comments:
13 yr old said "I like it better than most if your healthy baked stuff"

11 yr old said "really good! Good enough to make at least 3 more times"

8 yr old said nothing, (her mouth was full) but gave a big thumbs up

ENJOY!!
