Peaches and Cream Steel Cut Oats with Cinnamon Maple Drizzle

No one does breakfast quite like my sister Marci.  In fact, I’ve specifically banned my kids from ever having any sleepovers at her house, because heaven forbid they find out there is a world beyond cold cereal.  But I would like to say Marci, next time this Peaches and Cream Steel Cut Oats with Cinnamon Maple Drizzle is on your menu – I’m packing my pillow and bunking up for the night, in hopes to be awoken with this incredible aroma.  The pictures just aren’t cutting it for me any more.  

Now let’s hear it from Marci!

Peaches & Cream Steel Cut Oats

If I were of royal status and could have a steaming hot breakfast ready for me everyday after a hard morning run (because being royal doesn’t mean you don’t have to work for that beach body), this is what it would look like: a tower of soft, eggy french toast, stuffed with warm, sweet peaches, a cascading waterfall of maple syrup, a fluffy cloud of vanilla whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon all served on a white platter etched in pure gold…do i really have to leave this moment to get to my point…one more second…okay, back to reality.

Since no one is cooking for me in the mornings, and no restaurant has been able to perfect my royal breakfast, I created this: Peaches and Cream Steel Cut Oats with a Cinnamon Maple Drizzle.  It hits all the flavor notes I crave plus it’s quick, healthy, and will keep you energized for HOURS because- chia seeds!  One teeny, tiny little seed that gives my family the fiber and protein they need to really take charge of a day.

Before we dive into the recipe, I’d like to walk you through the steps to layering this hearty breakfast just right.  It all begins with a hearty serving of pressure cooked or slow cooked steel cut oats.
