A quick and easy overnight oats recipe featuring fresh peaches, cinnamon brown sugar, and toasted pecans for a refreshing yet cozy summer breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (almond, cow’s, or oat milk) (120ml)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (60g)
  • 1 medium fresh peach, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons toasted pecans, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast the pecans: Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of pecans and stir frequently for 3-5 minutes until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove immediately to a plate to cool and prevent burning.
  2. Prepare the oats base: In a mixing bowl or mason jar, combine 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 1/2 cup milk of choice, and 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt. Stir well to blend.
  3. Add flavorings: Mix in 1 tablespoon cinnamon brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon chia seeds if using. Adjust sweetness with 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup if desired.
  4. Incorporate peaches: Slice 1 medium fresh peach into thin wedges and fold gently into the oat mixture, reserving a few slices for topping.
  5. Refrigerate overnight: Cover the bowl or seal the mason jar and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
  6. Serve: The next morning, give the oats a quick stir. Top with the reserved peach slices and toasted pecans. Optionally, add an extra sprinkle of cinnamon brown sugar on top.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Toast pecans fresh to enhance flavor. Adjust milk quantity after soaking for preferred consistency. Peaches can be swapped with apples or pears in fall. For vegan version, use plant-based milk and yogurt and replace honey with maple syrup. Store leftovers covered in fridge up to 3 days. Stir oats before refrigerating for even flavor distribution.
