We definitely enjoy oatmeal bakes all year long, but this casserole is particular favorite after a family day of blueberry picking. You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries. I prefer frozen since I’m always freezing what we don’t use from the farm. 

There are so many health benefits surrounding oatmeal, but my favorite is the sustained energy it provides. I can enjoy this Blueberry Banana Breakfast Bake in the morning and it keeps me full until lunchtime. 

If you prefer a non-dairy substitute, you can replace the regular milk. Almond, soy and oat milk are great substitute options to use in this recipe. Alternatively, you can replace the sugar as well. Use your favorite sugar substitute to help cut the added carbs. 

I make this on Sundays and serve it throughout the week. The whole family loves it. I just reheat the casserole in the microwave. It’s like a warm oatmeal cookies with fruit and nut crunch.
