Oh, and best of all it’s vegetarian. I know it’s been a while since my lastvegetarian dessert, so I figured it’s time to catch up.

Moreover, you can serve it as a snack and replace the junk food in their (or even your) diet and they won’t hate you for it. Although they might be slightly resilient at first because giving up sugar is like giving up smoking (not an easy task, trust me!)

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that this is a healthy blueberry oatmeal bread because it doesn’t have any sugar in it.

I sweetened it with raw honey so we can say it’s safe to indulge in more than just a few slices.

Now let me show you a few tricks that will help you make the best blueberry oatmeal bread ever.

How to make blueberry oatmeal bread at home – Best Tips & Tricks

1. Adapt the recipe to your taste

Even though I haven’t yet met somebody that doesn’t like blueberries, I am going to assume they exist and for them, I have the following tip.

You can replace the blueberries with any kind of berries, like blackberries, chopped or diced strawberries, cranberries or even diced peach.

But make sure you don’t add more than a cup as the batter will be too runny and it won’t get puffed as it should.

Furthermore, you can adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less honey.

I served it for breakfast so I didn’t use that much, but if you plan to serve the blueberry oatmeal bread for dessert (or have a massive sweet tooth) you can add an extra spoon of honey.

Now let’s move on to the next trick.

2. How to serve this healthy blueberry oatmeal bread

If serving it for breakfast, you really need to try it with a dollop of greek or coconut yogurt, fresh berries on top and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey. This combo is truly amazing.

Or, you can warm it up, spread a thick layer of butter right after you take it out of the oven and have it with your morning coffee. Trust me, it’s crazy delish!

But if you have it for dessert, then you must pair it with a scoop or two of ice cream. I am pretty sure this will be your new favorite summer dessert.

3. How to keep this homemade blueberry oatmeal bread

You can store it in an airtight container and keep it on the counter for up to 3 days or you can freeze it for up to 3 months.

If you’re going for the second option, it’s best to slice it first and then freeze each slice in Ziploc bags. This way, whenever you want a quick bite you’ll just need to reheat a few slices.

4. How to tell when it’s baked

Do the toothpick test.
Don’t know what that is?

No worries, it’s quite easy.

First, check the outside crust of your blueberry oatmeal bread. If it’s not well cooked, let it bake a little longer.

Then you need to check the inside. Just stick a toothpick all the way through, into the top-middle of the bread, and if it comes out clean it’s done. If not, place it back into the oven but do the test at short intervals so you won’t burn the bread.

If the outside is browned but the inside is not done yet, it’s best to cover it in foil or parchment paper and return it to the oven.

And that was it. Now you are ready to make the best blueberry oatmeal bread ever.

So let’s summarize the key points, for the foodies that like to scan the article instead of reading it bit by bit (like yours truly 🙂 )

1. You can use any kind of berries you like and here are a few good ideas: blackberries, chopped or diced strawberries, cranberries or even diced peach.
2. Adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less honey.
3. Store it in airtight containers for up to 3 days, or slice and freeze it in Ziploc bags for up to 3 months.
