Looking for some tropical flavors? Made with fruit, oatmeal, and yogurt, these pineapple coconut oatmeal muffins are delicious – perfect for breakfast, lunch, or an after school snack.Pineapple Coconut Oatmeal MuffinsBack to School time has arrived! That means we’re back to routines, lunchbox planning, and make ahead breakfast prepping! As part of that, I LOVE making a big batch of oatmeal muffins for those busy school mornings. These muffins are nutrient-dense, made with “secret” ingredient – yogurt!!! Coconut Yogurt MuffinsYum! I’ve been making different variations of these muffins for years and they are all SO good! But these pineapple coconut muffins REALLY are a family favorite lately. If you like tropical flavors, the Light & Fit Original Greek Toasted Coconut Vanilla yogurt is SO good! It’s what helps flavor these muffins and they are SO good (as is the yogurt). So, this time of year especially, our house is stocked with yogurt! It really is the perfect solution for so many back-to-school situations. Breakfast? Check! Lunch? Check! After school snacks? Check!Family YogurtIn fact, we just stocked up on different yogurt our family loves at Target! Right now is the perfect time to do just that as you’ll find extra savings on select yogurts with Cartwheel (8/5 – 9/1): ActiviaOikosDanimalsLight & FitHappy Family Organics.

So, if you don’t have it already, be sure to download the Target app and snag this Cartwheel offer to stock up on your family’s favorite yogurt on your next Target run! You can see that my boys couldn’t resist getting some Danimals Smoothies for school lunches! They love the fruity taste, fun packaging, and easy squeezable containers! I mean, how cute is this?! Danimals SmoothieAdorable! And I love how nicely these cute, little smoothies fit into their lunch boxes! They’d be perfect for snack time or breakfast. But this time, our tropical yogurt oatmeal muffins and Danimals Smoothie helped create a cute “breakfasty” lunch for the kids! In addition to the Danimals, we put a muffin with a hard-boiled, strawberries, and cucumber slices together for a great lunch to eat at school! Easy Bento LunchThe boys LOVED it and have already requested this lunch again…WIN! So, now, back to those tasty muffins…they’re delicious! They’re packed with nutrient-dense ingredients like oatmeal, yogurt, chia seeds, bananas, coconut, and pineapple! Because I like to do batch cooking when I can, I start with 5 cups of oatmeal for this recipe – yielding about 2 dozen muffins! Perfect for breakfasts, lunches, and snacks throughout the week.And, they freeze great too, so sometimes I put some in the freezer as well! Making Yogurt Oat MuffinsTo start making the muffins, I actually grind the old fashioned oats down into an oat flour in the blender! SO easy! Then once you have the dry ingredients all mixed together, you’ll stir in the yogurt and fruit! Then bake and that’s it! They may not look super fancy, but they sure are tasty and packed with goodness! And the kids love them – so that’s always a win! Here’s the easy recipe:
