Frozen Oatmeal Cups

Preparing overnight oats ahead of time has become quite popular for many people, but this take on the singe-serving oatmeal recipe brings an ingenious twist. Rather than preparing individual servings in small mason jars, The Kitchn suggests making a large serving of oatmeal and then scooping small portions into a slightly greased or nonstick muffin pan. On top of this, you can put whatever nuts and dried fruits you'd like on top—this particular recipe calls for dried cherries, almonds and pumpkin seeds.

Once prepared, the tray can be placed in the freezer and when it's time for breakfast, it's as easy as placing an oatmeal cup in a bowl and warming up the dish in the microwave for a few minutes in order to cut down on those frantic mornings.
