Can I use frozen blueberries?

Yes, you can! Just thaw them first and pat dry with a paper towel. This helps prevent the bake from getting too watery.

Is this recipe gluten-free?

It is when you use almond flour or a certified gluten-free blend. Always double-check your ingredients to be safe.

Can I prep this the night before?

Absolutely. Mix and pour the batter into the dish, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Bake it fresh in the morning.

What other fruit works well?

Raspberries, chopped strawberries, or even sliced peaches are delicious alternatives. But the classic blueberry remains a favorite for its bold flavor and minimal moisture release.
