Total Time: 8 hrs 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup yogurt
- 1 cup diced peaches
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in half of the diced peaches, allowing them to distribute evenly throughout the oat mixture.
- Transfer the mixture into two separate glass jars or sealed containers, ensuring equal distribution.
- Cover the containers and place them in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight, allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- When ready to serve, remove the overnight oats from the refrigerator and give them a gentle stir to redistribute any settled ingredients.
- Top each serving with the remaining fresh diced peaches and sprinkle sliced almonds over the top for added crunch and texture.
- If desired, drizzle a small amount of additional honey on top for extra sweetness.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your creamy, fruity breakfast directly from the jar or transfer to a serving bowl.
Tips
- Choose the Right Ingredients: Use fresh, ripe peaches for the best flavor. If fresh peaches aren't in season, frozen or canned peaches work well too.
- Yogurt Matters: Opt for a thick Greek yogurt to create a creamier texture. For a dairy-free option, use coconut or almond milk yogurt.
- Overnight Magic: The key is patience! Let the oats sit in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours to achieve the perfect creamy consistency.
- Customize Your Toppings: While sliced almonds are delicious, feel free to experiment with other nuts, seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- Meal Prep Friendly: These overnight oats can be prepared up to 3-4 days in advance, making them perfect for busy mornings.
- Temperature Tip: Always serve chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.
- Storage Hack: Use mason jars or sealed containers for easy storage and portable breakfast option.
