Tips For Making Peach Overnight Oats

Use fresh peaches
Fresh, ripe peaches will give your oats the best flavor. They add natural sweetness and are perfect when in season.

Don’t overdo the liquid
Use the right amount of milk or yogurt. Too much liquid can make the oats runny, so stick to the recipe. You can always add more later.

Prep the night before
Overnight oats need time to soak. Make sure to mix everything together the night before so the oats have time to soften.

Add toppings just before eating
If you like crunchy texture, add the almonds right before you eat. This keeps them from getting soggy.

Extra Topping Ideas That Go With Peaches

Chopped Pecans
Adds a buttery crunch that pairs well with the sweetness of peaches.

Coconut Flakes
For a light, tropical flavor and texture.

Drizzle of Honey
A touch of honey enhances the natural sweetness of the peaches.

Granola
Gives a satisfying crunch and adds more flavor to your oats.

Chia Seeds
Sprinkle on some extra chia seeds for a healthy boost and a slight crunch.
