- ⅓ cup melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350°F and prepare an 8×8-inch pan with nonstick spray and parchment paper, creating easy removal handles.
- In a spacious mixing bowl, thoroughly combine rolled oats, whole wheat flour, leavening agents, and salt using a whisk, creating a uniform dry foundation.
- Create a creamy wet mixture by blending Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, vanilla, honey, and coconut oil until silky and completely integrated.
- Delicately introduce the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring minimally to preserve a tender, light consistency without overmixing.
- Gently incorporate fresh blueberries throughout the batter, ensuring even distribution, then transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
- Position the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45–55 minutes, monitoring the top’s browning and covering with aluminum foil if it darkens too quickly.
- Remove from oven and allow the cake to rest in the pan for 20 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to reach room temperature.
- Once completely cooled, slice into nine equal squares, revealing a moist, fruity breakfast treat perfect for morning enjoyment.
