- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, milk, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bake to cool slightly before serving, as this will help it set and make slicing easier.
