Ingredients for Peach Overnight Oats
- Greek yogurt: For a thick and creamy texture.
- Whole Milk. You can use the milk of your choice.
- Honey (optional). Adds extra sweetness. You can use maple syrup instead.
- Vanilla bean paste. For flavor.
- Chia seeds. Add a thick, creamy consistency to the oats.
- Rolled oats. I prefer rolled oats over quick oats because they absorb the liquid gradually, becoming tender without turning mushy, and create a slightly chewy texture.
- Ground cinnamon. I use only ½ teaspoon to flavor the mixture.
- Salt. Just a pinch.
- Peach. I highly recommend using fresh, ripe peaches; they make a huge difference in flavor.

How To Make Peach Overnight Oats
One: In a mixing bowl, mix yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla (photo 1).
Two: Add in chia seeds, rolled oats, cinnamon, salt, and peach, and stir together until combined (photo 2).
Three: Mix everything until combined (photo 3).
I like to mix everything in a bowl first to make sure it’s well combined, then transfer it to a jar for chilling.
Four: Divide the mixture evenly between 2 glass jars and cover with lids, and put in the fridge overnight (photo 4). Stir well before serving and add extra peaches on top.
Pro Tips
- Use ripe peaches for the best flavor
- For softer oats: soak longer than 12 hours
Why Use Greek Yogurt?
- It turns your oats into a high-protein breakfast, not just a snack.
- Creates a thick, creamy texture.
- Keeps you full longer.
- Balances the sweetness from the honey.
Storage & Meal Prep
- Storage: Keep in fridge for 3–4 days
- Meal Prep: To meal prep this dish, double the recipe, divide it into portions in glass jars, and put them in the fridge for every day's breakfast; they will last for 3-4 days.
Pro Tip: Add the peaches just before serving to achieve a crunchy texture.
Variations
To make your overnight oats:
- Extra High-Protein: Add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder.
