Baked Blueberry Oatmeal

I love the recipe swaps I participate in where you get to choose whatever recipe you want from your assigned blog.  Probably because I’m a BIG fan of surprises.  I always get excited to see who picks what from my blog!  And of course, I love to reveal my choice, too 🙂

This time around, I was given Kate’s blog, Kate’s Recipe Box.  She’s got a lot of great things to chose from and I had a few bookmarked, but ultimately, my need for a quick breakfast (as well as using up all of my blueberries) won over.  Plus, I hadn’t tried baked oatmeal yet, but have been meaning to for a while.  I’m glad I finally did!

Baked Blueberry Oatmeal
slightly adapted from Kate’s Recipe Box

3 cups oats
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk (I used 1%)
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups fresh blueberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine oats, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl.  Mix milk, butter, eggs and vanilla in another bowl, then add to oat mixture.  Stir until combined.  Gently mix in blueberries.

Spoon into a greased 9 inch square baking pan and bake for 40-45 minutes until set.  Serve warm.  Refrigerate leftovers and reheat before serving.

Serves 9.
