Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal Singles
These Banana Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal Singles are an easy, delicious grab-and-go breakfast for the whole family! It’s January, the time when everyone (me included!) recommits to their diet and exercise goals and resolves to eat healthy and get in the best shape of their lives. Naturally, I figured the best way to ease into my resolutions was with chocolate for breakfast! If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you know I love baked oatmeal. In 2011 I made Pumpkin, Apple Cranberry and Blueberry & Peach versions. I wanted to make a banana/chocolate adaptation of it and after seeing how much people liked my Sausage, Egg & Cheese Hash Brown Cups and Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit Cups, I decided to try baking them in muffin tins to make them easier to grab and go. You all know how I love my muffin tins! These turned out fantastic. They have a rich banana oatmeal flavor and each single serving is jam packed with chocolate for only 126 calories, 4 Green, 4 Blue or 3 Purple WW SmartPoints each. If eating chocolate as part of a healthy breakfast is any indication, 2012 is going to be a good year. To view your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site, click here!
