If you are in need of a homemade, delicious recipe that your whole family will love, you have to try these Blueberry Breakfast Bars! I like to whip these up in bulk and have them ready for breakfasts or even a snack for our kiddos on busy week. They give the nostalgic Nutragrain vibes – but without all of the processed junk. These are sweet, soft yet crumbly…and delicious cold out of the fridge on their own, or warmed up with some greek yogurt served on top. Heck, you could even make this a dessert and serve with vanilla ice cream. The options are endless!
