Description
A creamy, comforting, and naturally sweetened overnight oats recipe featuring peach honey and fresh peaches for a nourishing and easy breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (90g)
- 1 cup milk of your choice (240ml) – whole milk recommended, almond or oat milk for dairy-free
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (120g) – plain or vanilla
- 2 tablespoons peach honey (30ml) – or wildflower/clover honey as substitute
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (12g) – optional but recommended
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5ml)
- 1 medium fresh peach, diced (about 150g) – frozen or canned peaches can be used
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. Stir well to mix evenly.
- Pour in milk and peach honey. Stir until the honey dissolves and blends well with the mixture.
- Fold in diced fresh peaches and optional lemon zest.
- Divide the mixture into 2-3 mason jars or airtight containers. Seal and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours.
- In the morning, stir the oats gently. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Top with extra peach slices, a drizzle of peach honey, or nuts if desired. Serve cold or let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
Notes
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant or steel-cut oats. Chia seeds help thicken the mixture and add nutrition. Fresh peaches are preferred; if using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid. Stir oats before serving and add crunchy toppings last minute to maintain texture. Store in airtight containers in the fridge up to 4 days. Do not freeze. For vegan version, use plant-based milk and yogurt and substitute honey with maple syrup or agave.
