Morning Glory Baked Oatmeal Cups

Makes 12 individual servings 

Ingredients:

• 1½ cups crushed pineapple
• ½ cup shredded carrot
• 2 large eggs 
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar 
• 2 Tbsp ground flaxseed 
• 1 tsp vanilla extract 
• 1 tsp baking powder 
• 1 tsp cinnamon 
• ½ tsp salt 
• 1 cup skim milk 
• 2 cups old fashioned oats 
• ½ cup shredded coconut 

     Optional: ½ cup chopped nuts and/or golden raisins

Directions: 

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. 
2. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Mixture may be runny.
3. Let sit while you prepare muffin tins so the oats absorb some of the liquid.
4. Spray a 12-cup regular muffin pan with non stick cooking spray, or use cupcake liners and spray each liner.
5. Divide the batter equally between the cups.
6. Bake in pre-heated oven 20-25 minutes or until firm and tops are lightly browned. 
7. Cool pan completely on a wire rack. If you try to remove the individual oatmeals from the pan before they are completely cooled, they will fall apart. 
8. Store in covered container. Freezes great!
