Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with blueberries. You can also use frozen blueberries, but make sure to defrost them beforehand ortherwise they can end up rendering too much water.

Cover the berries with the oat mixture, then pour the milk mixture over the oats. Gently shake the dish to make sure the milk soaks up through the oats. Sprinkle the remaining berries on top. Sprinkle sugar for extra crunch if you want.

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 9×5-inch baking dish. When oven is ready, dry roast almonds, scattered on a baking sheet for 4 to 5 minutes.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the oats, toasted almond, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
3. In another bowl, combine milk, honey, egg, and melted butter (reheat butter 30 seconds in the microwave if needed). Whisk until completely blended.
4. Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with the blueberries (keep about 1/2 cup of the blueberries for the topping). Cover the berries with the oat mixture, then pour the milk mixture over the oats. Gently shake the baking dish to make sure the milk moves down through the oats. Make sure all the oat is soaked. Sprinkle the remaining berries on top. Sprinkle sugar for extra crunch if you want.
5. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is crisp and golden. Remove your blueberry baked oatmeal from the oven and allow to cool down. Serve as is or with a dollop of whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I haven’t tried yet but a 9x5 is a loaf pan. The photo is certainly not a loaf pan. I will try in a 9x9.

This looks delicious. Think I could substitute Almond milk instead of regular milk?

This recipe is so yummy! I add a dollop of plain yogurt to mine. Easy to make and is a timesaver for breakfast during our work week :)

LOVE it! I make it every weekend and give half to my parents. I alternate the recipe often but usually add a little organic maple syrup w/ a touch of Almond and vanilla extract and 1 extra egg. Occasionally I add cardamom. But I usually always put in dry roasted Almonds ,Hazelnuts & Pecans!

Excellent recipe, I have made several times. it's moist, healthy and delicious. I use fresh blueberries. I double the recipe and once cooked I divide into small mason jars and freeze for a convenient and quick breakfast or snack. You can eat it as is or add yogurt, almond milk or even ice cream for a nice treat. This recipe is a keeper!!!

I cut the recipe in half. Followed recipe as printed using frozen blueberries, it turned out very well. We both liked it. It doesn’t say how many serving the recipe makes though.

It had a good flavor, but It was a little soft, not very firm. I used an 8×8 pan, but it still was a little runny after cooking it longer. I will reduce the milk to at least 1 1/2 cup and decrease the eggs to one. Maple syrup works well if you don't have any honey

We loved it. I used a wider pan and cooked longer since I used frozen fruit. Turned out perfect. Will be making again.

I used a 9x5 pan, which is a loaf pan. I am going to have to cook this longer, as it was mushy in the middle. I think it needs a wider pan.
