  4. First, pour the dry ingredients (from the large bowl) into the baking pan, as well as 1 ½ cups of the organic blueberries.
  5. Then, pour the wet ingredients (from the smaller bowl) into the baking pan and gently shake the pan to allow the dry and wet ingredients to intertwine
  6. Finish by topping the last ½ cup of organic blueberries and the sliced almonds on top.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The recipe is done when you are able to remove a toothpick cleanly.
  8. Cut into 6-8 pieces and top with desired toppings or eat as is, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to a week, which makes this recipe great for batch cooking.
  • Use frozen organic blueberries in place of fresh, and in this case you do not have to thaw beforehand, just simply follow the recipe as is.
  • Option to add 2 - 4 scoops of collagen powder to this recipe to make it higher in protein.
  • *To make a flax egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 2 tablespoons of water in a separate small bowl, and then place in the fridge while you continue to prepare the rest of the ingredients (~15 minutes). From there, you’ll simply pour it into the wet ingredients and continue on with the recipe as is.
