Instructions
Here’s how to create this incredible Blueberry Baked Oatmeal:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish (9×9 inch works well) by greasing it lightly with oil or cooking spray.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well blended.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine Mixtures: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries and any optional ingredients like nuts and dried fruits.
6. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.
8. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Slice into squares and serve warm, topped with additional blueberries or a drizzle of honey if desired.
