Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease an 8x8 baking dish.
  2. Blend the oats alone 20 seconds, until they look like coarse flour.
  3. Add the cottage cheese, milk, eggs, banana, maple syrup, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Blend about 45 seconds, until completely smooth.
  4. Pour into the dish and scatter the blueberries over the top — they sink halfway as it bakes, which is exactly right.
  5. Bake 28 to 32 minutes, until the center is set and the edges are golden.
  6. Cool 10 minutes. Serve warm in squares, or portion into containers for the week.

Notes

It reheats beautifully — 30 seconds in the microwave and day-4 tastes like day-1. A spoonful of Greek yogurt on top pushes breakfast past 25 g protein. Nutrition is calculated per serving from the listed ingredients and may vary with brands and substitutions.
