Blueberry Almond Oatmeal
• Stir frequently while cooking to prevent sticking and burning. • Frozen blueberries help naturally sweeten and color the oats. • Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing maple syrup. • Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days without toppings. Health Benefits: This oatmeal provides a balanced combination of complex carbohydrates, plant-based protein, healthy fats, and fiber to support steady energy and satiety. Oats and flaxseeds support digestive health and blood sugar balance through soluble fiber. Blueberries provide antioxidants that support cellular health, while almond butter and almond milk contribute unsaturated fats and vitamin E for cardiovascular and skin health. The banana adds potassium and natural sweetness, helping reduce the need for added sugars while maintaining flavor satisfaction.
