Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Cups

First, mash the *banana* with a fork until smooth. Then, mix it with the *rolled oats*. Add in the *coconut oil* and *sweetener* of your choice. Stir to combine well.

Form the mixture into **six cups** using muffin tins. If your tins are not non-stick, be sure to grease them with a bit of vegetable oil.

Step 2

Bake the Cups

Preheat your oven to *180 degrees Celsius* (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Place the muffin tins in the oven and bake for about *30-35 minutes* until they are golden brown.

Once baked, allow the cups to cool completely before removing them from the tins.

Step 3

Blend Yogurt and Strawberries

Using a blender, mix half the *plain yogurt* with a few *strawberries*. Be sure to choose thick yogurt and avoid adding too many berries to keep the mixture from becoming too runny.

Step 4

Fill the Cups

Scoop the yogurt mixture into the cooled cups. Fill some cups with just the plain yogurt for a white filling, and others with the yogurt-strawberry mix for a pink filling.

Step 5

Decorate and Serve

Add your favorite *fresh fruits and berries* on top for decoration. Options include *nectarines*, *strawberries*, *raspberries*, *blueberries*, or any other fruits you love.

These cups are best enjoyed *immediately* after preparing to keep the textures just right.

Servings

Imagine serving these cute breakfast cups at your next brunch. 🥄 **They’re perfect for a picnic**, a special family breakfast, or even a quick yet elegant snack. 🥤 Take your time to decorate them with seasonal fruits and berries to create a visually exciting and appetizing display.

_**Pair them with a fresh smoothie**_ for added nutritional value and a burst of flavor. 🍓🍌 Or, if you're a coffee lover, they go perfectly well with a hot cup of latte or cappuccino ☕. And let's not forget the kids—they'll love to help in decorating their own cups with their favorite fruits! 🍉🍇

Your guests will be impressed by the level of effort and creativity you put into these treats. Not only do they taste amazing, but they also look like a gourmet dish! 🌟 The blend of crunchy oats and creamy yogurt with the freshness of fruits provides a truly delightful experience.
