  • Fresh blueberries: 1 cup 240 ml
  • Honey: 1/2 cup 120 ml

  • Butter: 1/2 cup melted (120 ml)
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1/4 teaspoon

Method
 

  1. Instructions
  2. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, roughly chopped macadamia nuts, and fresh blueberries.
  4. In a separate smaller bowl, mix together the melted butter, honey, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry oat and nut mixture, and stir until everything is well combined.
  6. Transfer the combined mixture into a greased or parchment-lined 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan.
  7. Press down the mixture evenly into the pan using the back of a spoon or your hands.
  8. Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
  9. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Tips
1. To get a crunchier texture, you can toast the macadamia nuts before adding them to the mixture.
2. If you don't have fresh blueberries on hand, frozen ones will work just as well. Just ensure they're thawed and drained.
3. To enhance the flavor, add a hint of cinnamon or nutmeg to the mixture.
4. Store the slices in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve the Blueberry Macadamia Oat Slice with a dollop of Greek yogurt for a delightful breakfast treat.
- Enjoy the slice with a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of tea.
- You can also drizzle a bit of melted dark chocolate or a dusting of powdered sugar on top for an extra touch of sweetness.
