Then place in the microwave for 1 min. Watch it carefully! This could overflow!
If the muffin top does not look firm, place back in 30 sec at a time.
Once ready, flip mug upside down onto a plate and slice some fresh strawberries to decorate.
Super yummy! I served this to my sister and she was so impressed with my quick healthy cooking skills. Try it! Let me know what ingredients you end up using! There’s a lot of room for creativity.
It was actually so disgusting!! The egg should definitely be reduced! I did it exactly the way she did and it turned out to be a yucky hard omelette!!
Oh mi gosh! I’m so excited to try this for breakfast tomorrow morning!!! I have all my supplies set up and ready to go! I’m using 1 packet of Quaker oatmeal, 1 egg, 1/2 a mashed banana (gotta eat clean!) and 5 blackberries! I’m sure its going to be sooooooo yummy!! SO pumped to start my day at 6 with a muffin! Thanks Cassey <3
I used this as a basis and re-wired it a bit and now eat it every day for breakfast. So tasty and really keeps me going! I can easily change the flavours depending on what fruit I have but normally my version is:
1/2 whole egg (ie not just whites)
~1/3rd cup of oats (jumbo or porridge but usually a mix!)
half a banana (which I mash into the mixture)
add a little water to reach desired consistency
Optional (but really tasty) add one/some of the following; small amount of peanut butter, honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, coconut, berries etc. Whatever you fancy!
Then you still have half an egg and half a banana left over in the fridge to use to make one as a pre/post workout or late night snack :)
Let me know if you try it! X
Oh and I forgot to say, I put it in the microwave for usually 1.5-2 minutes ish…but usually just look to see if it’s ready, and if not, put it in for a few more seconds :)
I doubled your recipe and divided it into two mugs. 2 wonderful muffins in less than 5 minutes! Thank you to you and Cassey for this great recipe!
It was alright. Kind of rubbery. I eyeballed most of the ingredients though. I’m pretty sure I added in much more than 1/4 cup of oats, maybe even 1/2 a cup. Considering this was made in 1.5 minutes in a microwave, I didn’t have high expectations for it. I’d probably make this again if I was super hungry & lazy and didn’t have anything else at home to eat.
I think the amount of egg should be reduced :/ and I don’t know why mine turned out like super hard and unedible!
You should add a little bit of water, see if that will help! :) Hope it does!
Sub in a 1/4 cup of egg whites for the egg and add some baking powder to help the mixture fluff up
I think the whole egg is a little much. It overpowered the taste of everything and gave it an omelett taste. Maybe half an egg white would be better since it is only 1/4 cup of oats.
That sounds discussing! A whole egg in one little muffin? It’s pretty much an oat and berry omelette. Egg is unnecessary and just gross….I might try and rework this without egg.
*disgusting
Auto correct….
I have made these b4 with just 2 egg whites not a whole egg, a cup of oats a tspn of baking powder, mixed berries and half a banana mushed, grease muffin tin then put in oven on 180 for 20 mins… if the mixture is a littl dry add more egg white, if too moist add more oats until u get the perfect mixture…
It has too much of an egg taste. I think I cooked it too long.
this was disgusting. I tried substituting the egg with banana, and it was still nasty. So I tried to make a savory version with tomatoes, spinach and feta and it was STILL AWFUL.
this recipe sucks.
my god.. yes, I added 1/4 – 1/2 of an oreo.. and yes, I spread nutella on top… but anyways… the inside is suuuper hard and dry. I’m pretty sure that’s my fault since I over-microwaved it. It’s not bad AT ALL! Just really hard… I was just paranoid because there was a raw egg in there. Make sure you add some milk or something though.. it’s quite dry for me. I have no idea how it looked so moist in the video, lol. Again, probably overcooked it! needed milk, and maybe I opened it too many times! This was purely trial-and-error. I will definitely be making more, and they WILL be moist next time! (:
Fabulous…and easily done with one hand (which is very useful with a 2 mth old baby!)
I used half oats-halfoat brans and fresh blackberries.
My 13 year old son made this as written, except he used frozen mixed berries and added some chopped walnuts. It was definitely muffin-like and not eggy after microwaving it for about 3 1/2 minutes. He really enjoyed it. Simple and healthy breakfast. Thanks for the great recipe!
tried this with apple and cinamin… yum! cant wait to try it with blueberries :) your amazing cass!
I wanted so badly to like this….but I couldn’t take more than one bite. It was rubbery and super eggy. I couldn’t get past the egg smell. My 4 year old son refused to even take a bite b/c it smelled gross
Oh! And maybe soak the oats in a couple tbsp of some.sort.of milk (oat, almond etc) so that.it.doesn’t taste like eggs. (Sorry! My keyboard is awful!)
It tasted like an omelette. I used fresh strawberries chopped really small and toadded a tbsp of oat milk to try to moisten it. I suggest adding milk and honey to the mixture. I think it would be yummy at lunch with tomato, spinach and maybe some reduced fat fetta cheese instead of sweet things.
I’m not an egg lover at all, so I was a little hesitant about trying this. Afraid it would be too eggy. I was surprised. It wasn’t too bad. Don’t know if I’d say “delicious”, but not bad, and I’d try it again for sure. I mixed everything up in a small bowl first (so there would be no traces of egg bits!) before putting it in the cup (except for the berries), added a little milk and a tiny bit of brown sugar and cinnamon. It’s not like a regular muffin, but I think it’s a good, quick healthy breakfast. Thanks! BTW, I’ve just recently discovered your videos. Love them and your presentation style! Have a great day!
Hey, i just came across this link and it looks super easy!! Going to try this out tonight and will come back with another comment.
Just came across this on Facebook and I made it this morning…I loved it…not really a “muffin” but so interesting, can’t really describe it…I used lots of blueberries and a bit of coconut milk and honey… it made the best syrup when it was finished…I am going to try peach tomorrow with a dash of raspberry jam- no sugar added and just egg white…don’t want to eat too many eggs in one week and I think I will be making this a lot. I did beat the egg first and then added to other stuff and mixed it all up.
Great idea…Thanks! :-)
could I make that in the oven? cause I don’t have a microwave… I’d just like to know how it would need to bake(?) and at what temperature :)
Just made this for the first time today with a few modifications- didn’t use any egg cos I think it’ll taste too eggy otherwise.
1. Microwave 1/4 cup oats with a dash of milk (not too much) for 1 min.
2. Mash up a banana and add it into the oats with the blueberries and add a little bit of dark muscovado sugar- you can make it as sweet as you want it but if you wanna be healthy and the banana is sweet enough then you can omit the sugar.
2. Microwave for 1 min- enjoy!
LOOOOOVE IT! Thanks Cassie!
I’m eating this right now… and WOW it’s so amazing!!! Super easy. I put 2 tbsp of ground flax seed and 1/2 banana instead of egg and blueberries. Love you, Cassey!!
Soooo delicious <3
But I used a kiwi and it was awesome!!
Greetings from Germany :D
Do I have to use the yolk of the egg? or can I just use egg whites?
amazzzzzing! i did put the quick oats for 3o secs in microwave then mixing in the rest of ingredients. lovelyyyy!
That was just awful it tasted like rubber. The
Directions to make it were awful. What’s a
Little sugar ?
Marsha Marsha Marsha
A teaspoonful. Or you could always use your imagination..
Definitely a new favorite! I was nervous about making it with the egg because so many people complained about the flavor, so I used chia seeds (1tbsp) and water (3tbsp) like another poster suggested and that did the trick! So good! <3
Made this and it was AMAZING. A new breakfast favourite. I used frozen mixed berries.
Why did it taste so eggy? I added everything including a little bit of brown sugar but it tasted just like eggs with blueberries in them. What can I do to make it not taste so eggy? Please help me! I’m dying for alternatives for my terrible sweet tooth! Thank you!!!!
I just made it, and I did not taste the egg at all. But, I mixed it very well in a bowl first, then put it in the cup.
That was so disgusting, it was just runny egg and kit wasn’t thick at all. Try to get your measurements right, I did not know how much brown sugar to put it. I had to add flour to make it thicker.
you should be the one trying to get your measurements right if your not happy with them… not cassey. if you want it different than use your imagination. a lot of people built on this idea so it would suit them
This sounds sooo yummy, but what are the nutrition facts? I can’t wait to try it!
WOW!!! This was sooo Good, I was out of oats though so I just used wheat flour, I also put both strawberries and blueberries in and it was SO good… Thanks Cassey for this amazing recipe, I think I will be eating this for breakfast alot because I am usually pressed for time in the morning and It is nice to have something so quick and delicious to make. <3 Lydia
Mine did not turn out like this…but it was still very tasty. I didn’t cook the oats and think maybe that’s the key.
Haha I don’t think i mixed in the egg properly… there was bits of egg everywhere… gross! and were u meant to cook the oats first? I didn’t
Someone please clarify! — Do we cook the oats first or mix them in dry???
Big question: do we cook the oats?
Try this with honey, and milk in the mix(really lite though) and like a quarter of a banana. So delicious.
My blueberries were all old so I had to throw them out! But I made it with mashed up bananas and it was so good! The banana sunk to the bottom and was like a sweet topping. I love this. I’m definitely going to be making this quite a bit.
I just tried that now and it’s absolutely delicious!!! And my stomach is full! Also, I was thinking, I will probably try this recipe in a “salty” version, with vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, onions, garlic…) and a little bit of fresh herbs (like basil or parsley), salt and pepper… Will probably be super yummy too! Thank you for this recipe Cassey, you rock!!!
So i really want to try this!! But i have a few questions are you supposed to use a raw egg or cook it and then mix it up? and also i saw some people saying theres didn’t make a form it just looked like oatmeal how do you make it take shape of the cup??
hello=) you’re supposed to use a raw egg.you put everything in a mug and mix it up really good..also you may have to microwave it for longer that a minute,i did so for 2’30”..if you’re worried about the agg taste,you can add 1/2 mashed banana to the mixture…just remember to have everything PERFECTLY mixed=) enjoy:D
Tried this for my breakfast this morning. Mine didn’t look anything like the picture though. It didn’t raise up in the form of the cup and came out more like chunky oatmeal. Tasted okay but don’t know what I did wrong!
Funny story:
I made this and didn’t realize i need to cook the oats before putting them in the cup. Whoops! It turned out more like an omelet lol.
I made this for breakfast for the first time today and it was delicious!!! I used liquid egg whites, a little brown sugar, a touch of almond milk and fresh mixed berries… super yummy :-) Thanks for the easy and healthy recipe!
I made it and it was great! I suggest that you pound the egg first, and don’t use a really big egg.
Is there anything that I can use in place of the egg? I’m a vegan. Thanks!!
Chia seeds and water form a thick gel to replace eggs for vegans. Use 1 tbsp. of chia seeds + 3 tbsp. water to replace 1 egg. :-)
I always add some raspberries and half a banana and no sugar (because of the sweetness of the banana). And this mix is SOOOOO yummie!!!
I’m so curious of it. I will do it tomorrow, I promise! And I’m so happy, because where I live it becomes a fresh, regional, veggie-fruit season. There are tons of youn berries, tomatoes, potatoes (there are much healthier ant tasty than tipical ones), strawberries, cabbages, and more… There are tons of it in every shop, and they ara locally grown!!!
looooooove it..
Am I crazy by being excited of food??
I did this with chopped strawberries instead of blueberries. It was delicious!
This was so delicious.
You can’t find blueberries where I live, so I used raisins and shredded coconut instead. Additionally, because I have a sweet tooth that can’t be broken I did not add any sugar but rather poured a bit of pure honey over it after I was done. (I know if I had added sugar I would still have poured honey over it so I decided to eliminate one)
This just joined my breakfast inventory.
Blueberries isn’t that common in my country so I dint add any=( anyways, I replaced the brown sugar with pure honey and man, it taste so good plus it’s so easy to make and not to mention, healthy! This is such a great idea for breakfast=DDD
