200g (2 cups) old-fashioned oats
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
14 oz. milk*
80g (1/3 cup) maple syrup
2 eggs
40g (3 tbsp) butter, melted & unsalted
2 tsp vanilla extract
12 oz. frozen blueberries (or fruit of choice)
2 tsp sugar
Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 375. *Optional, toast chopped walnuts for 5-6 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine old fashioned oats, walnuts, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Mix well.
