Blueberry Walnut Baked Oatmeal

I love a good bowl of oatmeal, but have never tried a baked version before.  I must say, I think this blueberry walnut baked oatmeal is now my favorite way to eat it.  The oats are so tender but still have a nice chewiness to them.  This gets a nice level of sweetness from honey.  I must admit, I still needed to add a little sprinkle of brown sugar to my serving.  I just couldn’t help it.  I love some brown sugar with my oatmeal. I also have a good sweet tooth.

I also chose to use fresh blueberries and walnuts in this version.  I had some blueberries sitting in the fridge that needed to have something done with them.  This would also work with any other fruit and nut combo you like.  I think raspberry and almond would be yummy. Or how about some apple and pecans in there? If you aren’t a fan of nuts just substitute them with even more fruit!  Surprise Dad on Father’s Day morning with a bowl of this hearty breakfast of blueberry walnut baked oatmeal! It will be a hit!
