Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice such as cow’s milk or oat milk.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries; frozen will thaw and slightly soften in the fridge.
- For extra texture, top with additional slivered almonds or a drizzle of nut butter before serving.
- This recipe is naturally gluten free if you use certified gluten-free oats.
- Make a larger batch by multiplying ingredients and store in multiple jars for quick grab-and-go breakfasts.
