This baked oatmeal has been my go-to breakfast this month—I’ve already made it 3 times! Bursting with blueberries, it’s healthy and delicious.
We’ve been spending August at our cottage in Michigan, where we’ve had a steady stream of guests. My mom, my sister, close friends… Every time someone comes to town, we go blueberry picking! So…my fridge? Currently packed with blueberries. 😊
I love eating them by the handful and tossing them into salads. But this month, my favorite way to use them has been in this blueberry baked oatmeal. I’ve made it 3 times already, and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon.
Here’s why I love this baked oatmeal recipe:
- It’s super satisfying. Whole rolled oats, almond butter, pecans, and fresh fruit fill this oatmeal bake with fiber, protein, and healthy fats. One slice easily keeps me full till lunch!
- It tastes DELICIOUS. It’s crisp on top, soft in the middle, and filled with fruity, nutty flavor. In addition to the blueberries, I add mashed banana, which gives it a subtle banana bread-y taste.
- You can make it ahead. This recipe keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days! I love to reheat a slice for a quick and easy meal prep breakfast.
If you’re looking for new healthy breakfast ideas to add to your rotation, this recipe is the first thing I’d recommend. I’m not the only one who’s making it on repeat!
