Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

1/4 cup chopped nuts or seeds (optional)

Cupcake liners

Instructions
 

Prepare the Muffin Tin: Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners to create individual cups for easy removal.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and salt. Stir well to combine.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the creamy peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), milk, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.

        Combine Both Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. The mixture should be thick but still wet.

          Add Extras: If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped nuts or seeds to the oat mixture for added flavor and texture.

            Scoop into Liners: Using a spoon or ice cream scooper, distribute the mixture evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 3/4 full.

              Freeze: Place the muffin tin in the freezer for about 2 hours, or until the oat cups are fully frozen and firm.

                Serve: Once frozen, remove the oat cups from the muffin tin and peel off the liners. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

                  Optional Serving Suggestion: Serve these Frozen Peanut Butter Oat Cups as a quick snack or breakfast treat, drizzled with additional peanut butter or topped with sliced bananas for a delicious twist.
