How to Make Blueberry Yogurt Oat Bake Mug

PIN IT

Let me walk you through this like I would in my kitchen—with a warm cup of coffee nearby.

Step 1: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In your mug, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla. It should look smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Add the Dry Ingredients

Stir in the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. The mixture will thicken slightly—don’t worry, that’s perfect.

Step 3: Fold in Blueberries

Gently fold in your blueberries. If you’re using frozen, no need to thaw—just toss them in!

Step 4: Microwave or Bake

• Microwave: 2–3 minutes until set
• Oven: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15–18 minutes

You’ll know it’s ready when the top is set and slightly springy.

Step 5: Cool & Enjoy

Let it cool for a minute (I know, the hardest part!) and dig in.
