This crockpot peaches and cream oatmeal is a filling, low-calorie breakfast you can prep once and eat all week. It’s creamy yet light, sweet from peaches, and works for Weight Watchers, vegan, and gluten-free eating.
If you’re tired of oatmeal that either tastes bland or blows your calories before noon, this recipe fixes that. Each serving is generous (about 1½ cups), satisfying, and comes in at 367 calories or 3 WW points.
Why Crock Pot Oatmeal Works
- The liquid-to-oat ratio keeps the texture creamy, not gluey
- Peaches add natural sweetness so you don’t need much sugar
- It reheats well for a great meal prep breakfast that’s healthy
This is the kind of hands-off breakfast that makes staying consistent easier, not harder. Unlike many crockpot oatmeal recipes that turn out overly thick or bland, this version stays creamy and reheats well without needing extra sugar.
What Makes This Healthier
If you’ve ever eaten purchased packets of peaches and cream oatmeal, like Great Value or Quaker, this homemade version tastes just as good and is much healthier.
- Lower in sugar than packets
- Fresh fruit not freeze-dried
- Old-fashioned, whole oats instead of quick oats
These bowls of oatmeal help to lower cholesterol and keep you full with the fiber in the oatmeal and peaches. The butter and cream are decadent, yet we keep the portions in check so you won’t blow your points or calories for the day.
That makes this recipe great for weight loss.
What to Serve with Oatmeal
Add one of these options for a complete meal:

- Coffee – of course!

Slow Cooker Peach Oatmeal in 3 Easy Steps
Here is a step-by-step guide to making your peach oatmeal. If you are cooking this on the stovetop, see the instructions in the recipe card below.
Step 1: Gather Ingredients for Oats
We used canned peaches for this recipe, but you can use fresh or frozen peaches, too.
While butter is optional, it adds a creaminess to your oats that is delicious. Adding a little bit of fat to your meals gives them more staying power and helps with hunger later in the day.
Step 2: Cook
Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, then stir to combine.
Cook overnight (8 hours) on Low or cook on high for 3 hours. This recipe takes 10-15 minutes if cooked on the stove.
Your oats are ready to serve.
Step 3: Serve with Cream
Serve your fruit oatmeal with a splash of half and half cream. You can reduce calories and fat by using additional skim or unsweetened almond milk, although the cream makes these extra delicious.
