Anti-Inflammatory Highlights
Fresh Blueberries: Exceptionally rich in anthocyanins and antioxidant polyphenols that help combat cellular oxidative stress and support brain and heart health.
Rolled Oats: Provide soluble beta-glucan fiber to support healthy digestion, sustained energy, and steady blood sugar balance.
Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
1 ripe banana
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup blueberries
Pinch of salt
Drizzle of honey
Instructions
1. Prep the Oven & Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish or oven-safe skillet (around 6 to 8 inches).
2. Blend the Base: In a mixing bowl (or blender for a smoother texture), thoroughly mash the ripe banana with a fork. Whisk in the egg, milk, rolled oats, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
3. Add Blueberries: Gently fold most of the fresh blueberries into the oat mixture, reserving a small handful to scatter on top.
4. Bake: Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, smoothing out the top, and scatter the remaining blueberries across the surface. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is fully set.
5. Serve: Drizzle with honey just before slicing and serving warm!
