- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
- Fold in the blueberries, adding frozen ones directly from the freezer if using.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 6–8 hours or overnight.
- Remove from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon until crumbly, then sprinkle over the top.
- Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
Notes
- Serve with additional maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
- Frozen blueberries work well and do not need to be thawed.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
- You can substitute whole wheat flour for part of the all-purpose flour for added fiber.
