Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin pan by greasing it or lining with paper liners.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth and stir in the peanut butter until well combined.
  3. Pour in the milk, and mix well, then add the rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined.
  4. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.
  5. Portion the batter into the muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the tops are set and lightly golden.
  7. Let the oatmeal cups cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
