Ingredients

• 400g tin peach halves in fruit juice, drained
• 45g porridge oats
• 45g flaked almonds
• 15g dried cranberries
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 orange
• 150g 0%-fat Greek-style yoghurt

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7.
2. Place the peach halves, cut-side up, on a baking tray.
3. Tip the oats, flaked almonds, cranberries and cinnamon into a bowl and toss together. Zest the orange over the top, then squeeze in the juice from the orange and mix together really well.
4. Spoon the mixture onto the cut sides of the peaches, leaving it slightly higgledy piggledy.
5. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes until the peaches are tender and the oat mixture is slightly crispy around the edges.
6. Serve hot or warm with dollops of the yoghurt. Eat Well for Less: Every Day by Jo Scarratt-Jones (BBC Books, £14.99) Photography by Andrew Burton.
