Ingredients

  • 2 fresh peaches (medium-sized, $1.94*)
  • ½ cup blueberries ($0.45*)
  • 1½ cups milk ($0.44)
  • 1 cup plain yogurt ($0.69**)
  • 1 large egg ($0.23)
  • ¼ cup brown sugar ($0.12***)
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats ($0.56)
  • ½ tsp baking powder ($0.02)
  • ¼ tsp baking soda ($0.01)
  • ¼ tsp salt ($0.02)
  • 1 tsp ground ginger ($0.11)
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon ($0.02)

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉. Clean the peaches and cut them into chunks. Place the peaches and blueberries in the bottom of an 8×8 baking dish coated with non-stick spray.
  • In one bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (milk, yogurt, egg, sugar). In a separate bowl, stir together the dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon). Combine the two bowls and stir until evenly mixed. Pour the mixture over the fruit in the baking dish.
  • Cover the dish with foil (to keep the moisture in and steam the oats) and place in the preheated oven. Cook for 20 minutes. Remove the foil at 20 minutes and continue to bake until the top is golden brown (about 25 minutes more).
  • Serve warm with cold milk, whipped cream, vanilla yogurt, or just plain!

Notes

*You can use any type of fruit you want in this recipe, including fresh, frozen, or canned fruit (go for fruit canned in their own juices, like in our baked peach oatmeal recipe). You need about 2 cups of chopped fruit total. Just note that frozen fruit may extend the baking time slightly.
**I use regular unsweetened plain yogurt. Unsweetened Greek yogurt should also work out well. However, Greek yogurt does have less moisture than plain yogurt, so your baked oats might turn out slightly stiffer.
***I don't like things too sweet, so I used a very minimal amount of sugar here. If you want a richer, more decadent, dessert-like baked oatmeal, double the brown sugar.
