If you need a quick and easy make ahead breakfast baked oatmeal muffins are a must make. Kids and adults love these.

Breakfast happens on the go for many people as they head to work, school, and other daily activities.
Muffins make a great grab and go breakfast, but they often don’t stick with you for very long because they are not very filling. Adding peanut butter and oatmeal to a muffin makes it a more filling breakfast option.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Baked Oatmeal Muffins are also great because they can be changed up. You can use whatever kind of jelly that you have on hand or that you enjoy.
By the time you mix together peanut butter, jelly, and oats, they are not the prettiest breakfast or muffins, but they are so good!
My daughter has a peanut allergy so we now make these with sunflower butter or soy butter. If you can’t have peanut butter any nut butter or peanut butter substitute should work fine in these.
You may be wondering if these be made gluten free? Yes, they are easy to make gluten free. They don’t contain flour so that part is easy. They do have oats in them though so if you are gluten free and can tolerate gluten free oats, just use gluten free oats to make them gluten free.

I used to make peanut butter and jelly muffins for my kids growing up. They are now 24 and 30. I would put half of the peanut butter mix in the muffin tins and then a little dollop of jelly in the middle and put more peanut butter mix on the top. They loved that they got a little jelly treat inside each one.

That is a great idea for kids!
