This blueberry oatmeal recipe is a nutritious breakfast dish served with rolled oats and fresh or frozen blueberries and sweetened and spiced with extracts. Oats will absorb other ingredients while baking, and blueberries and sliced almonds provide sweetness and crunch. This recipe works well for family brunches and other occasions and for busy mornings. It can be served cold or warm. You can make the dish ahead of time and refrigerate it.
