Healthy Peach Overnight Oats - featured image

A quick, healthy, and delicious overnight oats recipe featuring fresh peaches, vanilla, and cinnamon for a creamy and flavorful breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup (45g) rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ¾ cup (180ml) milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • ¼ cup (60g) plain Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 1 medium fresh peach, diced
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • a pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Dice the peach: wash and dice one medium peach into small cubes (about ½ inch pieces).
  2. Combine dry ingredients: in a mixing bowl or mason jar, add rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently to mix evenly.
  3. Add wet ingredients: pour in milk and Greek yogurt. Add vanilla extract and honey or maple syrup if using. Stir everything well until fully combined.
  4. Fold in peaches: gently fold the diced peaches into the oat mixture, reserving a few pieces for topping if desired.
  5. Refrigerate overnight: cover the bowl or seal the jar and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. Serve chilled: stir gently before serving. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Top with reserved peach pieces or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant or steel-cut oats. Adjust sweetness after tasting. Pure vanilla extract is recommended. If oats aren’t soft enough in the morning, refrigerate longer. Leftovers keep up to 3 days in fridge; do not freeze. For dairy-free, swap yogurt and milk with plant-based alternatives.
