These little granola cups are the kind of thing that looks like it came from a fancy café but comes together with a short list of wholesome ingredients you likely already have on hand. Toasted oats and shredded coconut get bound together with melted coconut oil, pure maple syrup, and vanilla bean paste, then pressed into muffin cups and baked until deeply golden and fragrant. The result is a crisp, lightly sweet shell that holds its shape beautifully once cooled — no nuts, no dried fruit, no fermented or aged ingredients that can quietly push histamine levels up. The filling is simply fresh ricotta sweetened with a touch of maple syrup and vanilla, which is creamy and mild without any of the aged-cheese concerns that make dairy tricky on a low-histamine plan. Fresh mango or blueberries on top add a bright, juicy finish that keeps everything feeling light and seasonal. Each batch makes 6 cups, so they're easy to prep for a week of breakfasts or a relaxed weekend brunch spread. They're genuinely pretty on a plate, and nobody at the table needs to know they were designed with dietary limits in mind.

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Generously brush 6 cups of a standard 12-cup muffin tin with melted coconut oil, coating the sides and bottom of each cup thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, shredded coconut, and fine sea salt. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the 3 tbsp coconut oil, 3 tbsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp vanilla bean paste together, stirring until combined, about 1 minute. Pour the warm mixture over the oats and stir until every oat and coconut flake is evenly coated.
