Baked Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins | Large Family Freezer Meal Recipes
Mornings can be crazy, can I get an Amen? Who wouldn’t want a few dozen baked oatmeal chocolate chip muffins in a pinch?
Mama is trying to get herself going and the kiddos want breakfast. I bet I am not alone in finding my coffee, freezing cold, still sitting in the microwave where I put it hours earlier to heat up for the third time. It happens!
I have found over the years that having some type of freezer breakfast can be a saving grace for our mornings, especially the ones when we are trying to get out of the house for homeschool group or to hang out with friends.
These baked oatmeal chocolate chip muffins fill that bill perfectly. I keep them in the freezer and pull out what we need the night before. In the morning, they are ready to stick in the microwave to warm up. They’re also lovely straight out of the fridge cold.
I hope your family enjoys these as much as we do. I mean, chocolate chips…what’s not to enjoy? ; )

Hi there, my name is Abigail. I would like to know if i can leave the Apple sauce out for the chocolate chip oatmeal muffins also can I use coco instead of chocolate chips? I hope I hear from you. Keep up the good work with your you tube channel . I take my hate off to you for brining up so Manny kiddies. Well done.
I still use the applesauce in these muffins. Applesauce is pretty popular to bake with and works well in the recipe. It does not give it an apple flavor. You can mess around with it and use different recipe elements to see how it works for you. I’ve never tried it with coco. Let me know if that works out for you 🙂
