Mason Jar Blueberry Baked Oatmeal
We LOVE baked oatmeal for breakfast (well everyone but Annah, she prefers it cooked plain on the stovetop) and today we tried this fun way of baking it in mason jars. Here's the recipe:
2 Cups Blueberries, plus extra for garnish
2 Cups Old Fashioned Oats
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Aluminum Free Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Sea Salt
2 Cups Whole Milk
1 1/2 Tbsp. Melted Butter
1/3 – 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts
1. Preheat the oven to 375′. Divide the berries between six small mason jars.
2. Mix the oats, cinnamon, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Divide the dry mix between the jars, just layering on top of the blueberries, about 1/3 cup.
3. Mix the milk, butter, maple and vanilla together. Pour a scant 1/2 cup on top of the oats, letting it seep through to the bottom. Place all the jars in a baking dish, sprinkle a few fresh berries on top, and bake on the middle rack for about 30 minutes until the liquid is absorbed, tops are just browned but the oats are still moist.
Sprinkle the tops with the walnuts and a pinch of honey and serve warm!
