Last year my husband and I made a commitment to eat healthier foods and that includes eating a healthy breakfast every day. With that said, we often get tired of the eggs, pancakes, waffles, French toast, etc. So, I’m always looking for easy-to-make recipes for breakfast.
What’s really nice about the oatmeal and blueberry breakfast bars is that you can make them the day or night before. You only need a few basic ingredients and you bake them in the oven, let them cool and then cut them into bars. To keep things interesting, you can change out the blueberries for strawberries, raspberries or cranberries which are equally as good.
- 1 1/2 cups Quick Cooking Oatmeal
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup Wyman’s of Maine Frozen Blueberries, partially thawed
- non-stick vegetable baking spray
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl combine together the quick oats, granulated sugar, milk, large egg, salt, melted butter, baking powder and vanilla extract until all eight ingredients are well-combined and blended together. Stir in 1/4 cup of partially-thawed Wyman’s Blueberries.
- Lightly grease a 9″ by 13″ baking dish with non-stick baking spray. Spoon mixture into the baking dish in an even layer. Place baking dish into a preheated 350 degree F. oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Remove and let cool. Once cool, cut into bars and store in an airtight storage container.
Once you’ve cut them into bars, you’ll want to store them in an airtight container. I store mine in the refrigerator but when my mother makes them, she stores them at room temperature. You can serve them as-is or add your favorite toppings. Everyone in my family LOVES these breakfast bars, including the kids!

Looking good love to try this loving the blueberries
my family will love this something new
Those are a good way to change up breakfast. I like oats & blueberries in almost any form. These are grab & go bars.
I’ve been trying to eat healthier, too. I’d definitely try this recipe; I love blueberries.
I love bars with oatmeal and fresh fruit. I would definitely use more than the 1/4 cup of blueberries and I would add some cinnamon too.
I like this recipe and am looking forward to trying it for my family. I think it is so convenient to have recipes that can be done the night before because we can get pretty busy in the mornings taking our grandchildren to school.
Oh, these bars sound awesome! Not too sweet, full of oats and blueberries–what’s not to like? I am not a morning person, so having a grab-and-eat breakfast option is a must for me. I am saving this recipe and will make it soon. Thanks!
Yummy these sound Delicious! My Favorite cookie is homemade oatmeal raisin cookies. I am thinking that if I used raisins instead of blueberries, they would taste alot like homemade raisin cookies. I Pinned the recipe and I will have to try these soon~ Thank You for sharing :O)~~~
