Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup Milk (or plant-based milk)
- 1 cup Water
- 2 medium Fresh peaches
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped almonds or walnuts (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Brown sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Peel the peaches and remove the pits. Dice one peach into small chunks and set aside. Mash the second peach in a small bowl to create a puree.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the oats, milk, water, salt, and the mashed peach. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture starts to bubble, about 5 minutes.
3. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Allow the oatmeal to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency.
4. Remove the saucepan from heat and gently fold in the diced peach chunks.
5. Divide the oatmeal into two serving bowls and sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired. For extra sweetness, garnish with a teaspoon of brown sugar on top.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy your Peachy Licious Oatmeal!
