Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats

  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Chocolate hummus for topping

Instructions
 

Preheat and Prepare:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or lightly grease the cups.

Mix the Base:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, peanut butter, and maple syrup.
  • Stir the ingredients until well combined and a sticky, cohesive mixture forms.

Form the Cups:

  • Take small portions of the mixture and press them into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup, creating a well for the filling.

Add Chocolate Chips:

  • Sprinkle a few dark chocolate chips into the base of each oatmeal cup.

Bake:

  • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown.

Cool:

  • Allow the oatmeal cups to cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare Chocolate Hummus:

  • While the oatmeal cups are cooling, warm up the chocolate hummus slightly, if needed, to make it easier to drizzle.

Top with Chocolate Hummus:

  • Once the oatmeal cups are completely cool, spoon a small amount of chocolate hummus onto the top of each cup, spreading it to cover the surface.

Chill:

  • Place the cups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate hummus topping to set.

Serve and Enjoy:

  • Once chilled, remove the cups from the refrigerator and serve. These delightful Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Cups with Chocolate Hummus Topping make for a delicious and satisfying treat!
