How to Make It

Create your tasty overnight oats with these simple steps:

Prepare the Base

Combine rolled oats, milk, vanilla extract, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir well until the oats are fully immersed in the liquid, ensuring they’ll absorb all the flavors overnight.

Mix in the Flavors

In a separate bowl, mix the diced peaches, cinnamon, and sweetener of your choice. Stir until the peaches are well coated. Then, incorporate this mixture into the oat base.

Refrigerate

Transfer the mixture into a jar or airtight container, sealing it tightly. Place the container in the fridge and let it chill overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.

Serve

In the morning, open your fridge to reveal a creamy, satisfying breakfast. You can add extra peaches, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and a sprinkle of cinnamon for even more flavor before digging in.
