Don’t you hate those mornings when you wake up late and have to rush out the door to go to and you can’t eat a nice breakfast so you grab a icky power bar that tastes chalky and fills you up for about 10 minutes.
Yea, that’s a miserable start to one’s day. Well for those days when you can’t sit down to eat breakfast, you don’t have to grab a power bar, you can eat a baked oatmeal cup.
A nice, filling and healthy start to a busy day, especially since these are banana oatmeal cups with a PEANUT BUTTER CHEESECAKE FILLING!

We love this recipe — so original! We’re familiar with the Tofutti cream cheese but do you have a preferred brand?
Can I use yogurt instead of creamcheese?
yep that would most likely work if you used greek yogurt 🙂
YUMM! Cheesecake for breakfast. :)) <3
