What’s better than your favorite childhood cereal? A grown-up granola that tastes like your favorite dessert.

This Peach Cobbler Granola is a deliciously dreamy way to start your morning. Buying premade isn’t always budget friendly, so I love coming up with new ways to reinvent it at home. This recipe was a HUGE hit. We keep a large glass jar of fresh granola on the kitchen counter for quick breakfasts all week long, and this recipe is a keeper.

Breakfast should be enjoyed and it’s even better when made simple with meal prep. Whip up a big batch of this sweet, buttery cereal for a quick bowl with milk or try it on top of your favorite yogurt. Let’s think outside the box and make some homemade granola!

What You’ll Need:

Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats- You will need 6 cups, use gluten-free if needed. Avoid quick or instant oats.

Butter- You need quite a bit of butter, but remember… this makes quite a large batch. If you use salted butter, it will make this more a “salty & sweet” cereal, which also tastes great. Both salted or unsalted will work.

Peach Preserves- This makes up most of the sweetness in granola and adds an extra touch of peach flavor.

Brown Sugar- Just a little bit for the “sauce”. You can skip it if you want to reduce the sugar. I suggest first making the sauce without it and taste before you take it off of the stove. That way if you change your mind and want to add it, all you have to do is pour it in and heat it up on medium until it melts.

Vanilla Extract

Cinnamon

Salt- (optional, if using unsalted butter) Just a pinch of table salt in the “sauce” and/or crumb topping enhances and balances the flavors.

All-Purpose Flour- This is for the crumb mixture that makes this granola unique.

White Sugar– For the crumb topping

Dried Peaches- You can use 6-8 ounces. I like to get a 1-lb bag and save half for another batch. Same can be done with a 12 ounce bag.

Chopped Unsalted Nuts- (optional) Any kind that you like. Walnuts and pecans are fantastic. If you don’t like nuts, you could swap them for unsweetened coconut, just make sure it is added with the peaches so it doesn’t burn.

Large Sheet Pan

Parchment Paper– Typically I will opt for my silicone mats when baking, but in this case I prefer using parchment paper for easier clean up. Also, when I am scooping this into my jar I can simply pick up the paper and pour in any remaining bits of granola on the pan. Toss the paper into the trash and we are done.

Serving Suggestions & Ideas

Meal Prep- Make this and place in an air-tight container on the counter for up to 7 days, or in the fridge for up to a few weeks.

Yogurt Bowls or Parfaits

Brunch/House Guests- This looks impressive in a simple glass jar for a self-serve breakfast or brunch when you have guests. Make it extra “fancy” and serve alongside some of my easy Sweet Cream Biscuits. You can find my recipe here.
