Ingredient Notes
Rolled oats – They are also called large flake oats or old-fashioned oats.
Brown sugar – It’s the perfect pairing with oatmeal, adds sweetness, and helps the top to brown and crisp.
Baking powder – Helps the oatmeal bake to rise and taste lighter.
Ground cinnamon – A classic spice to use with both oatmeal and peaches, cinnamon adds a warmth and wonderful flavor to the dish.
Salt – Helps to enhance the flavor.
Eggs – Eggs help to bind the mixture together and add some protein to the bars. If you are avoiding eggs, you could substitute applesauce.
Milk – The liquid for the oats to absorb. I love using milk because it adds to the flavor and adds some protein to the dish. But you can substitute almond milk, coconut milk, or even water.
Melted butter – Adds a rich taste to the oats, but you can also substitute vegetable oil or coconut oil.
Vanilla – Always a must when you’re baking, vanilla enhances the sweetness and flavor of the other ingredients.
Peaches – I use canned peaches to keep this recipe quick and easy to make, but you can also use fresh peaches or frozen peaches. You may need to adjust the cooking time.
How To Make Peach Baked Oatmeal
In a large mixing bowl, add the oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Then stir until well combined.
Then add the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla and mix well.
Fold in 2 cups of the sliced peaches.
Then pour the mixture into a 9×13 baking dish. Place the remaining 1 cup of peach slices on top of the oatmeal.
Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes until the center tests done and the top is lightly browned.
Topping Ideas
- Maple syrup – A drizzle of maple syrup over the top is a delicious pairing with oatmeal.
- Crushed nuts – Pick your favorite nuts, peanuts, pecans, or walnuts, all of which are great choices.
- Greek yogurt – A dollop of Greek or regular yogurt goes along great, its slight tang makes a tasty contrast with the sweetness of the oatmeal bake.
- Peach butter – If you want even more peach flavor, spread the top with peach butter.
How To Store And Reheat
To store in the refrigerator, let the baked oatmeal fully cool, then cover it with plastic wrap and place it in your fridge. It will keep for up to a week.
For longer storage, you can freeze the whole pan or slices. Let the dish fully cool, then cover with foil and place it into the freezer. It will keep for up to 3 months.
You can also cut the oatmeal into squares and freeze it in freezer-safe containers or bags.
To reheat a pan of oatmeal, cover it with foil and warm it in your oven for 20 minutes or until heated through at 350°F.
To reheat individual servings, warm them for 5-10 minutes at 350°F or microwave them for 1 minute.
