Common questions

Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh?

Absolutely! Frozen raspberries work just as well. Let them thaw slightly before mashing, or use them as-is for a chilled filling. This makes the recipe perfect year-round. 🍓❄️

Can I make these oatmeal cups vegan?

Yes! Use vegan chocolate and ensure your peanut butter and maple syrup are plant-based (most are). Coconut oil for the topping is already vegan. 🌱🍫

What can I use instead of peanut butter?

You can substitute peanut butter with almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option. Just make sure the consistency is similar to natural peanut butter for easy mixing.

Can I skip the chia seeds in the filling?

Yes, but the chia seeds help thicken the raspberry filling and add a nutritional boost. If you skip them, consider reducing the liquid content or cooking the raspberries down to thicken them.
