A simple, nourishing breakfast recipe featuring ripe peaches roasted with toasted oats and nuts in one pan, delivering a comforting and flavorful start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1 cup (90 g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup (60 g) mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans), chopped and toasted
  • 3 tablespoons (42 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Toast the oats and nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until golden and aromatic. Be careful not to burn them.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, lemon juice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Rinse and halve the peaches, removing the pits. Place them cut side up in a single layer in an 8×8-inch baking pan.
  5. Toss the toasted oats and nuts with the butter and syrup mixture until evenly coated.
  6. Spoon the oat-nut mixture evenly over each peach half, pressing lightly to adhere.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until peaches are tender but still hold their shape and the oat topping is golden brown and slightly crisp.
  8. Let the dish cool for about 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to thicken and flavors to meld.

Notes

Toast oats and nuts separately before mixing to unlock deep, toasty flavor. Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid mushiness. If topping browns too fast, cover loosely with foil and continue baking. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil or plant-based butter. For vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey. Leftovers keep up to 3 days refrigerated and reheat best in oven.
