Blueberry Pie Baked Oatmeal

Breakfast can be a challenge in my house, a serious challenge. It’s not the kids, either – it’s me. I swear, one of the greatest days of my life came when my children were old enough to make their own toast and fetch their own cereal. A few peanut butter smears on the counter are well worth the opportunity to sleep in on a Saturday, relatively undisturbed.

But, every once in a while, the domestic breakfast urge strikes. (Who am I kidding? By the time I get to it, it’s brunch at best, maybe even lunch, but I digress.) And when I’m in the mood to whip up some breakfast fare, I like it to be quick and easy and flavourful. Bonus points for reasonably healthy, too.

Baked oatmeal is a go-to around here, because it’s fast and I always have the ingredients on hand. It’s also really easily adapted to whatever flavour you’re feeling the itch to create.

This one reminds me of a crumb-topped blueberry pie – a couple scoops of frozen blueberries and you’re well on your way to creating a little taste of summer at any time of year. Even in February.
