Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup honey or maple syrup, optionanl
2 cups milk, any
1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 ½ cups blueberries, fresh or frozen

Instructions

Prep:

Preheat the oven to 375F, with the top rack in the middle position, and grease a 9 x 9-inch square baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the milk, egg, honey, melted butter, and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl, and mix well. Add the blueberries to the bowl, and gently fold to combine. If using frozen blueberries, there's no need to thaw.
Pour the mixture into the baking dish. With a spoon, stir to evenly distribute the blueberries in the dish.

Bake:

Bake it in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, until the top is golden and the oat mixture is set in the middle. Remove it from the oven and let it cool down slightly before serving.

Serve & store:

Spoon the baked oatmeal with blueberries into bowls. Pour a little extra milk or spoon yogurt over the top for added protein, or enjoy as is.
Cooled leftovers will keep in the fridge (covered) for up to 4 days. To reheat, warm them in the microwave with a little liquid (milk or water) to soften, for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Notes

This recipe uses old-fashioned oats. The large flakes soak up all the liquid and won't dry out. If you want to use instant oats, add ¼ cup additional oats and watch for doneness around minute 25.
