Peach Oatmeal

Peach Oatmeal is the perfect way to celebrate our final days of summer. In fact, I cannot believe that we just entered September. Nevertheless, Ontario peaches are still in season (from July until September). Today’s Cinnamon Peach Oatmeal adds a beautiful balance of sweetness, savoury and crunch with chia and pumpkin seeds.

Peaches are in season from July until September. Enjoy them in this Cinnamon Peach Oatmeal

Nutrition of Peaches:

A medium peach contains only 50 calories but also 15% of our daily vitamin C, 2 grams of fibre along with 6% of our daily vitamin A supporting eye and skin health. Importantly, including naturally sweet, plant-based antioxidants in our diets also supports heart health and lowers risk of lung and oral cancer.

Wishing you a great summer finale. And I hope you feel inspired to use up all those sweet, ripe peaches by adding them to breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks! Also, check out my Warm Kale Salad with Peaches for more nutritious recipe inspiration.
