Blueberry Banana Oatmeal Bake

While we were hunkered down at home during the Hurricane Lane threat, I did a lot of baking.  One of the dishes I made was Blueberry Banana Oatmeal Bake.  I needed to use up blueberries, and I also wanted to make something that would go well with ice cream, since we had a 5 quart bucket of vanilla ice cream that needed to be eaten up as well.

Whether you eat it for breakfast, dessert, with ice cream, or without, it's quite yummy!  A great way to use up blueberries and bananas!
