  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish or casserole dish.

  • Incorporate the Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, reserving a few for topping.
  • Transfer to the Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Scatter the reserved blueberries on top.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute cottage cheese with a plant-based alternative and almond or coconut milk.
  • Add-ins like chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or dark chocolate chips can enhance flavor.
  • You can swap blueberries with other fruits like raspberries, diced apples, or sliced bananas.
  • Make the recipe gluten-free by using certified gluten-free oats.
