🍓 Air Fryer Baked Oatmeal (Single-Serve, Crispy & Easy!)
Whip up a warm, cozy, and healthy baked oatmeal in your air fryer in just 10 minutes! Perfect for busy mornings—customizable with your favorite fruits, nuts, or chocolate.
📝 Ingredients (for 1 serving)
- ½ cup rolled oats (or quick oats)
- ¼ cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey (or sugar-free sub)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Mix-ins:
- 2 tbsp berries (blueberries, strawberries)
- 1 tbsp chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans)
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
👩🍳 Instructions (3 Easy Steps!)
1️⃣ Mix: In a small bowl, combine oats, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, baking powder, vanilla, and salt. Fold in your mix-ins.
2️⃣ Pour: Transfer to a greased ramekin or small oven-safe dish (must fit in your air fryer basket).
3️⃣ Air Fry:
- 300°F (150°C) for 8-10 mins (until set and golden).
- Pro Tip: Check at 8 mins—if top isn’t crispy, air fry 1-2 mins more.
✨ Topping Ideas
- Drizzle with peanut butter or yogurt.
- Add sliced banana or extra berries.
- Sprinkle with shredded coconut or chia seeds.
