Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (feel free to drecrease slightly, if preferred)
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats 
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds (optional.  feel free to use flax seeds or hemp seeds, too)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 6-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together rolled oats, honey, chia seeds, ground cinnamon, vanilla, coconut oil and mayple syrup until well combined.  NOTE: if needed, you can melt the honey for 10 seconds to make it slightly easier to mix with the oats. 
  • Add equal amounts of the granola mixture to each of the 6 muffin tins. Press the mixutre down into each cup so they form a small cup.  TIP: wet your fingers just a bit with water to form the cups.  This will help the mixture from sticking to your hands.
  • Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes.  
  • Carefully remove from the oven and reshape the granola mixture into a bowl form, if needed.  
  • Allow the granola cups to cool for 20 minutes before removing. 
  • Fill each cup with regular or greek yogurt, ice cream, berries, peanut butter or more!  Serve and enjoy! 
  • Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
