A Gluten Free Muffin in a Cup... featuring Love Grown Hot Oats Cups

Love Grown suggests using their Hot Oats cups for either grab-and-go oatmeal or turning the oatmeal into a muffin. I decided to play with the recipe a bit and see what would happen if I modified the directions.

Their directions call for adding 1 egg and 1 TBSP of water to the cup prior to microwaving for 90 seconds.



Directions:
  • Add 1 FLAX SEED EGG (I tbsp ground flax seed + 3 tbsp water ... mix and let rest for 5 minutes) + 1 tbsp water to the cup and stirred with a fork to combine. 
  • Microwave the cup for 90 seconds and check on its consistency. (I added 20 seconds of additional cooking time.)
  • Let rest for 1-2 minutes to "set" then invert on a plate and serve. 

NOTE: Fresh Fruit can be substituted for the 1 TBSP of water. I experiments with this on the Strawberry/Raspberry Hot Oats and found 6 raspberries or 1 average size strawberry (diced) worked well and enhanced the fruity flavor.

Serving suggestions:
  • Top with nut/seed/soy butters
  • Serve fruit/nuts on the side
