This Blueberry Peach Baked Oatmeal is topped with a scrumptious streusel is the perfect healthy breakfast that tastes like dessert. It is filled with fresh summer fruit and is vegan & gluten-free!
Y’all know that we love breakfast foods. What do we love more than breakfast foods? Breakfast that taste like dessert. Some previous recipes that we have created that are nutritious enough for breakfast and decadent enough for dessert include Brownie Cookie Dough Oatmeal, Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars, and Chunky Monkey Single Serving French Toast.
Since it is currently peach AND blueberry season, I thought to myself, why not make a blueberry peach baked oatmeal? Oh man and it is so good, it literally tastes like pie, except without all of the added sugar and processed ingredients. This baked oatmeal has 3 layers: an oatmeal base, fresh fruit filling, and a crunchy streusel topping.
What could be better for breakfast? You can have this for breakfast or dessert, no judging here. Plus it is good-for-you, your family and friends will never know that it is nutritious, unless that looked at the ingredients of course. Easy enough for a week-day on-the-go breakfast, and pretty enough for brunch or any family party. This will please kids and adults alike!
Can I Use Frozen Fruit?
You may certainly use frozen fruit for this baked oatmeal, just be sure to drain some of the extra liquid after you let simmer in the saucepan.
