Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the oats, baking powder, salt, lemon zest, and cinnamon.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, maple syrup, egg, melted butter, vanilla, and lemon juice.
  4. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  5. Add blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries.
  6. Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
  7. Cool and serve: Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use frozen blueberries straight from the freezer—no need to thaw.
  • Add chopped nuts or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra texture and protein.
  • Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 5 days and can be reheated or eaten cold.
