Peaches and Cream Baked Oatmeal

To celebrate summer I had to develop a recipe with peaches. My favorite summer treat is warm peaches with cinnamon. I find peaches so pretty I just had to bake this up in a pretty pie pan and dish it up with a pie slicer. You can bake yours in a 9×9 square baking dish and scoop it out or celebrate peaches with a fancy dish like mine.

A note on peeling peaches: I prefer my peaches peeled and have found the easiest way to do this is to toss the peaches into boiling water for 40 seconds and then scoop them out with a slotted spoon and drop them into ice water to stop the cooking. Then I take a knife and slit the skin and use my fingers to peel it off. This blanching process helps the skin come off super easily!
