Why we love peach blueberry baked oats
This is a breakfast recipe we make over and over again during the summer. Baking oatmeal Whether you’re making these peach blueberry baked oats, chocolate oats, or pumpkin oatmeal, is a great way to simplify your morning routine. We love to make a big batch of this oatmeal at the start of the week so that we have a quick, nutritious meal ready in an instant!
We also love to make this recipe for breakfast potlucks. It is a healthy alternative to a traditionally sweet breakfast option. This oatmeal bake is also very easy to prepare in advance. And once you pop it in the oven, you can forget about it until your timer goes off!
Is oatmeal good for you?
Believe it or not, oats are the most nutrient dense food out there. Oats are packed with protein, fiber, iron and magnesium (just to name a few nutrients). Despite having a ton of vitamins and minerals, oatmeal is low in fat and low in calories.
Oatmeal is naturally gluten free, which provides a great alternative for those with gluten intolerances. We always recommend checking the label, though, since some oat factories also process wheat!
How to make peach blueberry baked oats
- Cut up a large peach and rinse your blueberries.
- Mix all of your dry ingredients in an oven safe baking dish.
- Note: for thinner slices, using a 13×9 baking dish. For thicker pieces, use an 11×7 baking pan.
- Crack the egg into the baking dish, pour in the milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Mix everything together with a fork.
- Lastly, fold in the peach slices and blueberries
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.
- Serve warm!
When are peaches in season?
This breakfast bake is the perfect summer meal! You can always find peaches throughout the summer, but they are the ripest between the end of June and beginning of August. It is truly prime time for peaches!
If you are making this recipe out of season, you may be able to find fresh peaches through the fall. In the winter, we recommend using frozen peaches! You could even purchase fresh peaches in bulk during season, peel them and remove the pit, and freeze them up to last through the winter.

I do this recipe with home canned peaches. I use the full quart jar and then only do 1 cup of almond milk. So good!!
We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Ashley!

Is it possible to use steel cut oats instead of rolled oats?
We don’t recommend it! Steel cut won’t absorb the liquid as well.

I just put this in the oven but it is kind of soupy. is that the way it is supposed to be?
Depending on the fruit, it could be just a little runny, but it shouldn’t be soupy! Did you use old-fashioned rolled oats?

Yummy, Yummy, Yummy! I used molasses instead of Syrup. Grandkids gave it a thumbs up!
This was absolutely delicious! I’m so happy I gave it a try. I doubled the recipe and used regular milk and it came out perfectly!
We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Sara! 😊

This was a hit with my family. What would be the best way to store any leftovers?
Is it possible to leave out the egg? I don’t see the reason for putting an egg in an oatmeal baked dish?
You definitely can, it really just binds it. If you prefer, you can do a flax egg too.
This sounds amazing. If I wanted to add some protein powder to boost the protein content do you have any idea if that would work?
Yes! We recommend mixing all the ingredients before adding the fruit, just to make sure the protein powder is well incorporated. Then fold in the fruit before baking. Let us know how it turns out!
hi, is there an alternative to using an egg?
Yes, you can make a flax egg..
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
3 tablespoons water
Instructions:
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water.
Whisk together the mixture until it becomes thick and viscous, resembling the consistency of an egg.
Let the mixture sit for about 5 to 10 minutes, until it thickens further and becomes gelatinous.
Once it has thickened, the flax egg is ready to use as a substitute for eggs in your recipe.
I thought this recipe was very easy to follow and with minimal mess as you can mix all ingredients in the baking dish. I used an 11×7” pan and found i needed to keep it in the oven longer because it still has liquid pooling in the center. Mine also did not crisp up/brown like the example from the Food Dolls, which I think would have added a nice flavor/textural component. I also only have jumbo eggs, so I used that instead of the medium as written in the recipe.
I will definitely make this again and think that the concept could be easily tweaked with endless flavor combinations.
Thanks for the recipe!!!!
Sorry to hear that the liquid pooled it. You can try using a 13×9 baking dish. It will just be a little thinner than using an 11×7 baking dish! Hope this helps and you give it another go! xo, Alia and Radwa
I absolutely love this simple yet hearty breakfast recipe! My three boys (ages 3-5) who are picky eaters approve as well. It was our first time trying this combination of fruits and OMG was it delicious! This recipe is a new family favorite. The fooddolls made this recipe easy to follow and make. I can’t wait to try more recipes, as this was the first of many more to come. Thank you Fooddolls! 😊
Yay! So glad to hear that it was a hit with everyone! That is always a plus with it’s kid approved! xo, Alia & Radwa
