Peach Baked Oatmeal
Peach baked oatmeal can be enjoyed as a healthy breakfast or delicious dessert! It’s also gluten free and a great way to use up extra fresh peaches!
While a bowl of warm oatmeal really warms the soul, it’s kind of annoying that you have to make it in single servings every morning. This is one reason why I love baked oatmeal! You can make it ahead of time and it still has the same great taste when you are ready to serve.
As I mentioned, it’s such an easy way to use up ripe peaches, but don’t forget to give my gluten free peach crisp and caramelized peaches a try. You may have to buy another batch!
If you enjoy baked oatmeal you may also like overnight oats! Here are some of my favorites:
- Overnight Oats with Frozen Fruit
- Protein Overnight Oats
- Gingerbread Overnight Oats, GF
- 5 Ingredient Strawberry Cheesecake Protein Overnight Oats
- Mocha Protein Overnight Oats | The Perfect Post-Workout Breakfast
Ingredients Needed
- rolled oats – be sure to check the label to make sure they are gluten free
- chia seeds
- baking powder – you want the baking powder to be fresh so the oatmeal doesn’t come out flat
- cinnamon
- salt
- almond milk – go with an unsweetened variety, but any kind of milk will work
- plain greek yogurt – avoid using flavored yogurt
- egg whites
- pure maple syrup – honey can be used in place if desired.
- pure vanilla extract
- diced peaches
How to Make Peach Baked Oatmeal
Grease an 8×8 baking dish and preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg whites, greek yogurt, syrup, and vanilla.
Gently add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir to combine.
Fold in the diced peaches.
Bake for 40-45 minutes uncovered or until it is lightly browned.
Cool for 5 minutes then slice and serve!
Can You Use Frozen Peaches in Baked Oatmeal?
We love using fresh, but you absolutely can use frozen. Just be sure they are thawed completely and you drain off as much liquid as possible.
You can also use canned peaches. These should be drained as well and only grab the ones that in natural juices versus the sugary syrup.
Tips for Making
Do not substitute any other oats for the rolled oats. These work the best.
Feel free to add a few nuts or fold in chocolate chips just before baking.
Topping Ideas for Baked Oatmeal
- Drizzle with seed or nut butter
- Add a dollop of Greek yogurt or whipped cream.
- Top with fresh fruit and berries.
- For added sweetness, drizzle with more maple syrup or honey.
- Granola
- Chopped nuts or seeds
- More chocolate chips or cacao nibs
How to Store
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Serve warm or cold. I like to bake mine in an 8×8 pyrex with a lid for easy storage!
