Chef's Note
For the best flavor, use both fresh and frozen blueberries - the frozen ones will release juice as they thaw, creating beautiful purple swirls throughout the oats. You can also make a big batch on Sunday for the entire work week. The oats will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making this perfect for busy mornings!
