π₯ Why Everyone Is Obsessed
π‘ Pro Tips for Perfect Cups
- πThe riper the banana the better β black-spotted bananas are the sweetest and most flavourful. A greener banana won’t give the same natural sweetness.
- π₯Use natural peanut butter β no added sugar or oil. Just peanuts. It binds the mixture better and keeps these genuinely healthy.
- π«Add chocolate chips β press a few dark chocolate chips into the top of each cup before baking. They melt into little pockets of chocolate. Game-changing.
- βοΈGreat for meal prep β make a batch on Sunday and store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Quick grab-and-go breakfast all week sorted.

β Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use instant oats instead of rolled oats?
Yes β instant oats give a softer, more cakey texture. Rolled oats give a chewier, heartier result. Both work well, so use whatever you have.
Can I swap peanut butter for another nut butter?
Absolutely β almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter all work. Each gives a slightly different flavour but the same great texture.
Are these suitable for meal prep?
These are perfect for meal prep. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Can I make these without an oven?
Yes! Microwave individual portions in a mug or ramekin for 60β90 seconds. The texture is slightly different but they still taste delicious β great for a quick single-serve fix.
