Ingredients
  

For the Oat Mixture
  • 2 cups Old-Fashioned Oats Provide structure and fiber.
  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter Can substitute with almond butter for a nut-free option.
  • 1/4 cup Honey Or substitute with maple syrup for vegan option.
For the Chocolate Topping
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate (60-70% cacao) Use high-quality chocolate bars for best results.
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil Helps in melting the chocolate smoothly.

Equipment

  • medium saucepan
  • 12-cup muffin pan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, add peanut butter and honey over medium-low heat. Stir gently until the mixture is warm and slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Once warmed, remove from heat and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add old-fashioned oats to the saucepan and stir well until all oats are fully coated.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Using a 12-cup muffin pan, evenly divide the oat mixture into each cup, pressing down firmly.
  5. In a clean saucepan, combine dark chocolate and coconut oil. Heat over medium-low until completely melted, about 4-5 minutes.
  6. Drizzle the melted chocolate generously over each oat cup.
  7. Place the muffin pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour to allow the chocolate to set.
  8. Once chilled, carefully remove the oatmeal cups from the muffin pan and enjoy.
