Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1 cup diced peaches
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of rolled oats and 2 cups of almond milk. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully submerged in the milk.
- Add 1 cup of diced peaches to the bowl. You can use fresh peaches, canned peaches (drained), or frozen peaches that have been thawed. Gently fold the peaches into the oat mixture.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the honey-cinnamon mixture over the oats and peaches. Stir everything together until the oats, peaches, and the sweet mixture are evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture sit overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the almond milk and flavors.
- In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash more of almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve the Peach Cobbler Overnight Oats in bowls or jars, and top with additional diced peaches, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
- Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Peach Cobbler Overnight Oats!
Tips
- Choose Your Peaches Wisely: Fresh, ripe peaches will give the best flavor, but frozen or canned work perfectly too. Just ensure they're well-drained.
- Milk Matters: While almond milk is recommended, you can experiment with other milk alternatives like oat milk or coconut milk for different flavor profiles.
- Sweetness Control: Adjust honey to your taste. For a lower-sugar version, use less honey or substitute with maple syrup or stevia.
- Texture Tricks: If you prefer a thicker consistency, use less milk. For a creamier texture, let the oats sit longer or add a tablespoon of Greek yogurt.
- Prep in Advance: These overnight oats can be made up to 3-4 days in advance, making them perfect for meal prep.
- Topping Suggestions: Enhance your oats with chopped nuts, chia seeds, or a sprinkle of granola for added crunch and nutrition.
- Temperature Tip: While best enjoyed cold, you can gently warm these oats in the microwave if you prefer a hot breakfast.
