Peach Overnight Oats are the perfect way to get your fill of peaches while they’re in season! I love peaches grilled, added to salads, baked into muffins or bread, and they add so much flavor to oatmeal!
Made with peaches, they have the perfect mix of sweet and sour in each bite and they are a healthy way to fuel your morning.
This simple recipe only requires 5 key ingredients with a few optional flavor enhancers, and the result is a super satisfying meal that you’ll want to make again and again. This is hands down, one of our favorite make-ahead breakfasts. If you love peaches I think you will also really love my peach oatmeal bake or my peach cobbler recipe.

Ingredients needed
This recipe couldn’t be easier to make with wholesome, simple ingredients. Here’s everything you’ll need:
- Milk: I typically use unsweetened almond milk, but feel free to use any milk variety you like best.
- Yogurt: For delicious creaminess! Use Greek yogurt for an extra protein boost or plant-based yogurt to keep this recipe vegan and dairy free.
- Sweetener: To perfectly sweeten the oats, you can use either honey, maple syrup, or agave.
- Flavorings: A little vanilla extract and ground cinnamon add delicious flavor.
- Peaches: Fresh are wonderful, but feel free to use frozen peaches if they aren’t in season.
- Rolled oats: I recommend rolled oats for that perfect chewy texture. You can use quick oats, but they will have a softer, mushier consistency. Steel-cut oats will not work for this recipe, as they will not soften to the right texture.
- Chia seeds: While not totally necessary, they add nutrients and a nice, thick texture.
How to make this recipe
- Blend peaches and milk: In a blender, add one of the chopped peaches, almond milk, honey, vanilla, and cinnamon. Blend until they are well combined.
- Combine all ingredients: Pour the blended peach milk into a mixing bowl. Then, add the oats, chia seeds, and yogurt. Whisk until they are well combined. Toss in the rest of the chopped peaches.
- Soak: Let it sit for 15 minutes until the chia seeds and oats start to soak.
- Transfer to jars and refrigerate: Divide the peach oats into 2 to 3 separate lidded jars and store in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Enjoy: Serve warm or cold with your favorite toppings the next day.
Expert Tips
- Ever wondered the best way to cut a peach? I have you covered with this easy tutorial.
- If you’re not a fan of cold oatmeal, you can enjoy these overnight oats warmed up, too! Heat them in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute or two, depending on how warm you’d like them. Once heated, stir and add a bit more milk, as needed.
- All of the ingredients in this recipe are naturally gluten-free, however, to ensure your oats are gluten-free, buy a brand that is labeled certified gluten-free.
- To make this recipe vegan and dairy free, use dairy-free yogurt, plant-based milk, and maple syrup or agave to sweeten the oats.
Frequently asked questions
Any favorite fruit will work in overnight oats! Feel free to use blueberries, strawberries, cherries, or mango chunks.
You do not have to peel the peaches for this recipe. The skin is edible and so thin, you’ll barely notice it’s there. If you’d like to peel the peaches, I recommend doing this before slicing them.
Yes, you may use quick oats if it’s all you have on hand. It will also work but the consistency will vary.
Variations
You can easily customize peach overnight oats to make them your own! Here are some options:
- Instead of using peaches, other fruits work great too! Try mango, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, or mango.
- I typically use plain yogurt, however, low-sugar flavored yogurt like vanilla or peach-flavored yogurt would be great too!
- Adding different toppings makes these super delicious! Try topping the oats with more chopped peaches, unsweetened coconut flakes, almond butter, chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, and/or granola.
Meal prep & storage
The best part of this recipe is how easy it is to whip up the day before, so you have zero work to do for breakfast in the morning. Keep overnight oats stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container or in mason jars for about 4 to 5 days. When you’re ready to enjoy, give the mixture a good stir and add an extra splash of milk, if you’d like.
I do not recommend storing it in the freezer.
