More About This Recipe

  • When it comes to breakfast, there’s some pretty standard fare. French toast, pancakes, oatmeal, cereal. Fine options for most days, I suppose. But what about those days when you wake up and the same-old everyday standard just won’t cut it? Well, on those days, you make a batch of protein-granola Blueberry Crumble Breakfast Bars. With a crunchy granola crust, organic jam and blueberry filling, and golden granola streusel topping, these lightly sweetened bars are an ideal make-ahead breakfast or easy brunch nom. I like cutting the bars into 5 rows on the long side of the pan and 4 rows on the short. Hello there, little blueberry bars. These beautiful squares are ready to serve, share or wrap for lunchboxes. They’re great for just about every morning thing ever—and they pair ever so nicely with a cup of coffee and side of bacon.
