When I find good breakfast recipes I use them often. I have found a good way to have oatmeal w/o the typical groans that accompany this filling breakfast meal.
I have played with this recipe using peaches and apples in place of the blueberries but the blueberries are by far my favorite.
Blueberry Granola
Mix together:
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. corn starch
1-2 c. fresh or frozen blueberries. ( mine are often frozen)
Let this sit a few minutes to let the juice mix with the sugar and thicken. Then pour into an 8x8 baking dish. ( note if you want to use a 9x13 pan double the ingredients)
Mix in a separate bowl:
2 c. oats
1/2 c. brown sugar ( can increase if you want it sweeter)
4 Tbsp. softened.. ( not melted) butter.
Mix together well until the mixture is saturated. Pour on top of the blueberries.
Bake @ 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes. (* till the berries are bubbling and the oatmeal is crisp)
Let cool for a few minutes. Serve with cream or milk.
I put any leftovers in a tupperware container and store in the fridge. It is wonderful cold or warm. I often make this to replace the cold cereal for breakfast.
