Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats old-fashioned oats are best for texture
  • 1 cup milk dairy or non-dairy options like almond, soy, or oat milk work beautifully
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt plain or vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey to taste (adjust based on sweetness preference)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen peaches diced (if using frozen, allow to thaw slightly)
  • Pinch cinnamon (optional, for extra warmth)
Optional toppings
  • sliced fresh peaches
  • a dollop of Greek yogurt
  • a sprinkle of granola
  • chopped nuts
  • shredded coconut

Equipment

  • Jar, container, or bowl with a lid

  1. In a jar, container, or bowl with a lid, add your 1/2 cup of rolled oats and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.

  4. Stir everything together until well combined. Make sure the chia seeds and oats are fully submerged in the liquid.
  5. Secure the lid on your container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid, creating a thick, pudding-like consistency.
  6. In the morning, give your Peaches Cream Overnight Oats a good stir. If it's too thick, add a splash more milk. Spoon into a bowl and add your favorite toppings like fresh peach slices, an extra dollop of yogurt, or a sprinkle of granola.

Notes

Your delicious Peaches Cream Overnight Oats are designed for optimal freshness when stored correctly. Keep your prepared overnight oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 3-4 days. The texture will continue to thicken as they sit, so you may want to add a splash of milk in the morning if you prefer a looser consistency. While not ideal for optimal texture as the peaches might become watery upon thawing, you can freeze overnight oats. Portion them into individual freezer-safe containers. Thaw them in the refrigerator overnight before consuming. Overnight oats are typically enjoyed cold, but if you prefer a warm breakfast, you can gently warm them in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave for 30-60 seconds. Be careful not to overheat, as this can alter the texture.
