Baked Blueberry Oatmeal

This Baked Blueberry Oatmeal is something you can make ahead of time, or serve it piping hot straight from the oven.

Here in New England, blueberries are a mid-to-late-summer treat. Blueberry bushes everywhere are filled with plump, juicy fruits. Redwing blackbirds, goldfinches, and other songbirds dash in and out, retrieving fallen berries and snagging ripe ones from clusters of these little blue bites of magic. Whether you have a blueberry bush in your garden, a favorite secret spot in the woods for wild berries, or you head to one of the many pick-your-own farms, you can get as many fresh blueberries as you can carry, with plenty leftover.

Then we have this Baked Blueberry Oatmeal, which is delightful all year long, but I absolutely adore this dish on a chilly morning when a soft snow covers the ground. The dilemma is clear! Luckily, the solution is pretty clear, too. When there’s such an abundance of blueberries in the summer, I freeze as many as I can so that I can enjoy this recipe with my own blueberries well into winter. Of course, there’s no shame in buying blueberries from the store, either.

On to the recipe, though. This hearty breakfast is something you can make ahead of time, if you like. Serve it up as a special breakfast treat for guests, or make it your heat-and-eat choice for an energy-packed weekday breakfast.

There’s nothing like homemade oatmeal to fill you up and keep you running on a busy morning full of meetings, errands, or a long hike. And even though it’s technically a breakfast food, this is a super comforting dish when you enjoy it after a day of skiing, snowshoeing, or sledding. Serve with hot chocolate for a truly decadent and warming evening meal.
