Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

Fruit

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to distribute all dry ingredients evenly.
  3. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs (or flax eggs), and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Add Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they remain intact and evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly to ensure uniform baking.
  7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the oatmeal is golden brown on top and set in the center.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute flax eggs (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water per egg) to make this recipe vegan.
  • Use any plant-based milk, such as almond, soy, or oat milk, to keep it dairy-free.
  • For added crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts or seeds on top before baking.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated in the microwave.
  • Feel free to swap blueberries with other fresh or frozen berries.
