Peach Protein Baked Oats – breakfast and dessert in one

Warm, soft oats, sweet chunks of peach and a creamy peanut caramel on top… sounds like dessert, but it’s actually a wholesome breakfast.

These Peach Protein Baked Oats provide you with fibre, plant-based protein and healthy fats – and still taste like pure comfort food.

The best part? You don’t need any fancy equipment or obscure ingredients. The recipe is fully vegan, free from added sugar (if you want it to be), and totally free from food rules or judgement.

These baked oats are:

• Warm, soft and naturally sweet

• Perfect as breakfast or a snack

• Packed with plant-based protein (thanks to WAM Protein)

• Great for prepping ahead

Ingredients (serves 1–2)

For the baked oats:

• 1 ripe banana, mashed

• 50 g rolled oats

• 20 g WAM Protein – Pure Vanilla

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1 tbsp chia seeds

• 1 tbsp ground flaxseed

• 100 ml plant milk (e.g. oat or soy)

• 1 peach (half chopped, half sliced)

For the peanut caramel:

• 1 tbsp peanut butter

• 1 tbsp agave syrup or maple syrup

• A splash of plant milk, as needed

Optional for serving:

• Plant-based yoghurt of your choice

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 180 °C (top and bottom heat).

2. In a bowl, mash the banana and mix with the oats, protein powder, baking powder, chia seeds, flaxseed, and plant milk until combined.

3. Chop half the peach into small pieces and fold them into the batter.

4. Pour the batter into a small baking dish lined with parchment paper. Arrange the remaining peach slices on top.

5. Bake for around 20 minutes, until the top is golden and set.

6. While the oats are baking, prepare the peanut caramel: mix the peanut butter and syrup, then gradually stir in a little plant milk until smooth and pourable.

7. Let the baked oats cool slightly, then serve with a drizzle of peanut caramel and a dollop of yoghurt, if you like.

Tips & Variations

• Prefer it sweeter? Add a bit of syrup directly to the batter or sprinkle coconut sugar on top before baking.

• No banana at home? Unsweetened applesauce or blended pear works too.

• Nut-free? Swap the peanut butter for almond or sunflower seed butter.

• Meal prep tip: These baked oats keep well and are delicious cold too – perfect for an on-the-go breakfast.
