These banana oatmeal yogurt cups are a prep-ahead breakfast that checks every box — creamy, filling, naturally sweet, and ready when you are. Layered with thick Greek yogurt, oats, and ripe banana, they’re packed with protein and fiber that actually keeps you full through the morning. Make a batch on Sunday and breakfast is handled for the week without any morning scrambling. They’re also naturally customizable, so you can add whatever toppings you love and make each cup slightly different. Meal prep has never tasted this good.
- Swap: Use any yogurt you prefer — regular, coconut, or dairy-free all work well; just choose a thicker variety for the best texture.
- Make-ahead: Assemble cups Sunday evening and refrigerate; they’re ready to grab Monday through Thursday morning.
- Storage: Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; add any crunchy toppings just before eating.
- Variation: Layer in sliced strawberries, blueberries, or a drizzle of peanut butter instead of banana for different flavor combinations.
- Serving: Top with a small handful of granola or chopped nuts right before eating for crunch that stays crisp.

I bet these would be great with some sf ff pudding too. 🙂
Mmmm yes they would 🙂
What kind of oats do you use?
Quaker oats, they are not the instant ones but those would probably still work
A low fat cheesecake would be great!
Yum 🙂
Are these oatmeal cups easy to chew? Are they crispy or soft? Thank you.
Hi Laura they are fairly soft and yes I’d say easy to chew 🙂
I am just wondering if I can substitute banana for something else? Banana’s do not agree with me hut this looks so good not to try.
You could try apple sauce maybe
Once made, how long are these good for?
Hi Melissa, if you put them in the fridge I’d say about 3 days but you can freeze them
