These healthy cherry peach oats are scrumptious and sweet! Try this easy homemade peach oatmeal recipe from scratch for your next breakfast. Great for batch cooking or weekly meal prep, too.
Add frozen fruit, water and salt to a medium pan and bring a boil.
Add oats, vanilla extract and almond extract and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, stirring regularly to prevent the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pan or boiling over.
Cook until thick, about 10 minutes, then turn off heat. Serve with thawed frozen cherries (and the juice, the juice is the best part!), sliced banana and sweetener of your choice.
Notes
I buy a frozen sweet cherries and frozen peach slices and use these for this recipe. You could also use tart/sour cherries in it. The oatmeal is sweetened by the fruit. But, you can certainly add sweetener to it, like maple syrup, sugar, brown sugar or whatever sweetener you like.
