Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Fruit

  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature by the time the batter is ready.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly mix rolled oats, baking powder, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agent and seasoning.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, maple syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, avoiding overmixing to keep the texture light.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the blueberries, taking care not to crush them for perfectly juicy bursts in the baked oatmeal.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.
  7. Cool and Serve: Let the baked oatmeal cool slightly before slicing or scooping to serve warm and enjoy your nutritious breakfast.

Notes

  • You can substitute maple syrup with honey or another liquid sweetener of your choice.
  • Use any milk alternative such as almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Frozen blueberries work well, just do not thaw them before folding in to prevent color bleeding.
  • For added texture, consider sprinkling nuts or seeds on top before baking.
  • Baked oatmeal can be refrigerated and reheated for a quick breakfast throughout the week.
