Ingredients
1 lemon, zested and juiced 2 cups milk (soy, coconut…) 2 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp kosher salt 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1/2 tsp cinnamon 2 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled (Earth Balance Original Buttery Spread) 1 Tbsp chia seeds soaked in 2 Tbsp water for 10 minutes 1/3 cup sugar 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray.

Zest lemon; set zest aside. In a bowl, combine milk and juice from the zested lemon to make “buttermilk”.

In a medium bowl, combine the oats, baking powder, salt, spices, and lemon zest. In a small bowl, whisk together the “buttermilk”, butter, chia seed gel, and sugar.

Spoon half of the oat mixture into the baking dish, and then half of the blueberries. Add the remaining oat mixture and scatter the remaining blueberries on to the top, pressing them in slightly. Pour in the milk mixture and place in oven.

Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the mixture is a light golden brown along the edges, and the center has set up.

    I really like this- used almond milk. Mine turned out crumbly- not smooth and wet like cooked oatmeal. I enjoyed that consistency. One serving was a good for breakfast and terrific if you can afford to top it with a pat of real butter. - 3/3/13
