Why You’ll Love this Oatmeal Bowl!
This oatmeal is directly inspired from those summer peach and almond galettes that seem synonymous with summer. I personally love the flavors of almond and peach together and knew that they would taste amazing in an oatmeal recipe. The best thing about this oatmeal recipe is that it takes just 10 minutes to whip up. Plus, it’s packed with plant-based protein and healthy fats from the almonds.
I personally love the combination of the warm oatmeal, juicy peaches and cold yogurt. The yogurt tastes so good mixed into the oat and creamy oats. It is just the best way to start the day!
Tips For This Peaches & Cream Oatmeal Bowl!
- Plant milk – While you can use water to cook the oatmeal, adding plant milk instead will help get a creamier texture. I recommend using cashew milk or coconut milk to ensure that the oats are super creamy. Almond milk tends to be on the thinner side and doesn’t get the same creamy results that cashew milk does.
- Protein powder – Adding a good quality protein powder is also a great way to get your oatmeal creamier. I love using a vanilla flavored protein powder as it adds more flavor to oatmeal bowls that are on the plainer side. My favorite clean protein powder is from Sun Warrior.
- Nut Butter – If you don’t enjoy using protein powder, nut butters especially tahini and cashew butter are great options for adding creaminess. You can additionally use both protein powder and nut or seed butter for extra creaminess in your bowl of oatmeal. Just make sure that you buy your nut butter from a brand or company that doesn’t add any additional salt, sugar or oils to the nut butter.

Description
This bowl of peaches and cream oatmeal is exactly what any sweet tooth lover needs. Think creamy almond oats topped with a slices of caramelized peaches and creamy, cold coconut yogurt. Plus, this bowl is packed with protein, healthy fats and tons of omega 3’s!
Ingredients
Oatmeal
- ¼ cup Rolled oats
- ¼ cup Quick oats ((feel free to use all rolled oats, I like the texture of using both varieties of oats))
- 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder ((optional))
- ¼ tsp Kosher Salt
- 1 cup Cashew milk + ½ cup Water
- ½ tsp Almond extract
- 1 tbsp Almond butter
Toppings
- 1 medium Peach, sliced thinly
- 3 tbsp Coconut yogurt
- 1 tbsp Flaked almonds
Instructions
- Add all of the oatmeal ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Once the oatmeal begins boiling, stir it, and turn the heat down to low.
- Simmer the oatmeal, stirring occasionally until the oatmeal has thickened and become creamy. Pour it into a bowl and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the sliced peaches and a splash of water. Cook the peaches on medium-high heat, until the peaches release their juices and become super soft.
- Add the peaches and their juice on top of the oatmeal, along with a large dollop of coconut yogrut. Sprinkle some flaked almonds on top of the oatmeal bowl and enjoy! If you want the oatmeal sweeter, feel free to add a drizzle of honey or date syrup on top!
