These little breakfast cups are a fantastic healthy meal prep item for the week. These flourless banana oatmeal cups are made with simple ingredients and taste incredible!
Flax and Chia seeds
Most of these ingredients may already be in your pantry to whip these up in under 40 minutes. If you don’t have chia seeds at home, grab yourself a bag! These are great for so many recipes, including in smoothies or on a salad! I love them in these cups because you get a little extra crunch from them!😀 Chia seeds are packed with calcium, protein, magnesium, and omega-3s! So much healthy goodness for you in those seeds.
Flax seeds are also so good for you, and you can sneak these in just about anything! I even add them to my kids pancakes and they have no clue! If these aren’t something you are used to eating, give them a try. These also have so many health benefits, the recommended healthy serving per day is only 1-2 tablespoons. Flax seeds are also high in omega-3 fatty acids, which make them heart healthy! They also help to lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure, may help lower blood sugar levels.
Both of these seeds always get sprinkled on my oatmeal every morning. So, when I decided to branch out and make some breakfast oatmeal cups, I had to add them! Give the flourless banana oatmeal cups a try!
