Peaches and Cream Baked Oatmeal mixes oats and sweet peaches that are baked together in this hearty and comforting breakfast dish. The dish is so tasty, you might think it is dessert! You can substitute other fruits for the peaches, like bananas or berries. Serve it alone, or top it with milk or Greek yogurt. A family favorite and kid-friendly.
Peaches and Cream Baked Oatmeal. It just has a nice ring to it, right? Warm, sweet, baked oatmeal…what is there not to love?
I could not keep my kids hands off of this oatmeal. They love all kinds of oatmeal, from overnight oats, to slow cooker oats, but I think baked oatmeal is now their front runner. The nice thing about this recipe is that you can make it and save the leftovers for breakfast or snack-time throughout the week.
The oatmeal holds up well in an airtight container, so you just have to heat it up and wallah! You have an easy breakfast that is great for a back-to-school morning or even a nice fancy brunch.

Recipe Ingredients
For exact ingredient amounts and instructions, see the full recipe card below.
- Oats: I used old fashioned rolled oats in this oatmeal recipe. If you want to use steel cut oats you can but you will want to make sure to cook them according to the package.
- Cinnamon: The cinnamon helps to add a warm, rich flavor to the oatmeal.
- Maple Syrup: The maple syrup helps to sweeten the peach oatmeal. You also could sub in honey.
- Peaches: Sweet, juicy peaches are added into this oatmeal. You also can swap out for nectarines, apricots or berries.
How to Make this Peaches and Cream Baked Oatmeal
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8×8- inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients: Mix the oats, 2 Tablespoons sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a medium bowl.
Step 2: Whisk Wet Ingredients: Whisk the milk, egg, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla together in another bowl.
Step 3: Add Peaches: Scatter the diced peaches in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the oat mixture evenly on top. Pour the milk mixture on top and press to submerge all of the dry ingredients in the liquid. Arrange the peach slices on top and sprinkle with the remaining 2 teaspoons sugar and a pinch of cinnamon.
Step 4: Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, until set. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve the oatmeal alone or top it with milk, Greek Yogurt or maple syrup.
Storage Tips
Store the leftover oatmeal in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days. To reheat you can quickly heat in the microwave.

This is very yummy! A great way to make a satisfying breakfast for a large family gathering.
For an even healthier take, you could use steel-cut oats or oat groats instead of rolled oats.
They have more fiber – which is good in itself. Because they have more fiber, they also have a lower glycemic index; they don’t cause your blood sugar to spike and then drop as fast as rolled oats would. The slower rise and drop is better for weight management, and is even more important for people who are diabetic or hypoglycemic.
Both steel-cut oats and oat groats have a chewier texture than rolled oats. This may also promote weight management, since people would tend to eat more slowly, and therefore feel more full without needing larger helpings.
Great tip. Thanks!
Do you know the calories in this recipe please
I am sorry I don’t. You could enter it in a Fitness calorie tracking website.
Does it freeze well? I’m trying to prep easy grab and go breakfasts for my bean for daycare. She devoured a whole portion today for breakfast (1year old)
I would think so! You could just make sure it cools and then portion it out and out it in an airtight container. I would just thaw overnight maybe and then heat.
These came out so good!!
(Also, it’s spelled *voila, not wallah)
Thanks!!
I am so glad you liked it!
I have made similar baked oatmeal recipes and prepped the night before, but waited to bake in the morning. I assume that works well with this recipe as well?
Yes I believe you could do that! I haven’t tried it that way but it would be like an overnight oatmeal and then just baking it. Let me know how it turns out!
Thanks so much for the wonderful book review, Julia! I’m so glad you liked the book and feel that it would be a useful resource for both new and experienced parents. I’m also really happy that your boys loved the baked oatmeal! I like making a large batch of it and enjoying it throughout the week 🙂 Your photos are gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful cookbook with me! It is such a great resource for both new and experience parents. We plan to make many more recipes from it soon!
Raya would totally eat this up! Definitely making it for her and me!
She would love it! My kids went crazy for it! And honestly, so did I. 😉 Hope you like it.
This oatmeal bake is so healthy, but looks incredible- love the summery peaches and cream flavor 🙂
