Peach Blueberry Oatmeal

Strawberry and bananas, cherry and lime, rhubarb and strawberry... None of those classic fruit combinations appeal to me as much as peach and blueberry. As much as I love a traditional peach cobbler, I'm all for adding blueberries to the equation sometimes.

As I'm writing this post, it just occurred to me that I used to not like blueberries. I liked blueberry-flavored things, like the fake blueberries in Betty Crocker muffin mixes, but the real thing grossed me out entirely. To be honest, I can't remember really enjoying a blueberry until I made my Baked Blueberry Muffin Oatmeal...and that was not that long ago! Now, a quick click on the "blueberries" label at the bottom of this post shows just how enamored I am with them!

Ingredients (serves 1)

• 1 cup milk of choice, or water
• 1/2 cup rolled oats (I use Country Choice Organic)
• 1 medium yellow peach
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

1. Bring milk (I use an equal mixture of almond milk and water) to a boil, add oats, and reduce heat to medium. (If you'd like to add flax or chia seeds, do so now.)
2. Dice up the peach and add to the oatmeal immediately.
3. Once more of the liquid has absorbed, add vanilla extract, a tiny pinch of salt, and cinnamon. Stir.
4. If you'd like to add any extra ingredients (coconut oil, dried fruit, nuts, sunflower seeds), do so now.
5. When you're pleased with the consistency of the oatmeal, add in blueberries and gently stir into the oatmeal, just so they get warm and mixed in.
6. Transfer to a bowl. Serve with another splash of your milk of choice and any other additional toppings (shredded coconut, nuts, more blueberries, etc.).
