PEACHES & CREAM OVERNIGHT OATS
/My family loves peaches. Well, during peach season, that is. From fall until July, I don’t even buy peaches. But from mid to late summer, it’s basket after basket at my house!
These overnight oats deliver that wonderful peachy creamy goodness we all love along with loads of micronutrients, probiotics, fibre, healthy fats, and protein, too!
Note: I used Nutpods Caramel vegan creamer (soooo good!) and higher-fat Greek yogurt for a wonderfully thick and creamy consistency. However, you can certainly substitute canned coconut or nut-free milk and your yogurt of choice.
Ingredients for 2 servings:
1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup Nutpods Caramel dairy-free creamer (here) or canned coconut milk or unsweetened almond or nut-free milk
1 to 2 peaches, chopped, plus more for serving
1/2 cup plain probiotic Greek or dairy-free yogurt
2 Tbsp Nuzest Clean Lean Smooth Vanilla protein powder (optional, used here)
2 tsp white chia seeds
1 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of salt
2 Tbsp Lakanto sugar-free Maple syrup or pure maple syrup, honey, or sweetener of choice, adjusted to taste
optional toppings: berries, granola, nut butter, diced peaches or warm peach & maple compote (peaches caramelized with coconut oil, Lakanto Maple, and cinnamon), or toppings of choice
Directions:
Put oats, creamer or milk, peaches, yogurt, protein powder, chia seeds, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl or divide into single-serving mason jars and stir well to combine.
Cover and refrigerate overnight or for a minimum of 6 hours.
In the morning, stir and add additional sweetener and/or milk as needed for desired taste and consistency. Serve with your choice of toppings.
Peaches and Cream Overnight Oats can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Serve chilled with your choice of toppings.
