It’s up to you if you want to peel the apples or not.
Feel free to add a handful of mini chocolate chips to the oatmeal cups for a sweeter treat.
Instant or quick cook oats won’t provide the same texture as old fashioned oatmeal. Be sure to use old fashion as it give the best texture for these recipes.
If you don’t have mape syrup, you can substitute an equal amount of honey instead.
Eggs are used as a binder for the recipe, but if you are allergic, you can replace by adding an extra 2/3 cups of apple sauce to the recipe.
I recommend not preparing this ahead of time because oatmeals absorb moisture and they will get dry by the time you bake them.
Make sure to use a non-stick muffin pan. - Add raisins in if you are a fan of them
