Peach Pie Overnight Oats
I have never been a fan of hot oatmeal. Never, ever. I always ate it cold growing up. You know those flavored oatmeal packets where you just add hot water? Yeah. I added cold milk and ate it like cold cereal. Everyone thought that was weird. Maybe it was. Maybe I was just ahead of my time.
These days, cold overnight oats are all the rage. So who’s the weird one now?! Adam, I know you’re reading this so don’t answer that.
Now I’m not saying I invented overnight oats because I absolutely didn’t. And I wasn’t eating cold oatmeal before anyone else because I’m sure it’s been eaten cold for centuries. But I have been eating cold, milk soaked oatmeal my entire life.
Who knew I was a tiny little trendsetting tot? No one. Because I wasn’t and I’m not. It’s just fun to think that I’ve always loved my oatmeal sans heat and water and now it’s ‘a thing’.
I had a bunch of peaches we got at the orchard and wanted to try them out with my overnight oats. Wahlaaa, peach pie overnight oats. Peach pie overnight oats have got the flavor of peach pie but in a nice and healthy cup of oatmeal instead of baked in a pie shell. They’re so, so good. Peaches, cinnamon, a little honey… YUM. Gluten Free Peach Pie Overnight Oats, I love you so.
Now that I’ve tried the overnight soaked oat version, I’ll be eating them more often. Soaking them overnight is waaayy better than just eating cold oatmeal with milk. Soaking them overnight makes them nice and thick and creamy. Good stuff, people. Good stuff. Oatmeal is a healthy, hearty way to start your day so eat those oats!
Plus, I no longer have to feel weird about eating cold oatmeal, because like I said, it’s now a thing and you’ll be eating them right along with me. This little food trend was probably started by foodie hipsters. But whoever it was, thank you for being weird about eating your oatmeal too. These peach pie overnight oats are just plain fantastic… so, enjoy!

Can you put the peaches in overnight as well for a grab and go breakfast?
I wouldn’t because I wouldn’t want my peaches to get too mushy or brown. If you really want to do it ahead, toss the peaches with a tiny bit of lemon juice and put the peaches on top of the oatmeal.
I like the cold oatmeal, and it’s even better made with a dollop of greek yogurt, it’s much creamier.
Sounds good, I’m a little weird about yogurt though! Lol
This is perfect for back to school mornings! Thank you so much for linking up at Tasty Tuesday! Your recipe has been pinned to the Tasty Tuesday Pinterest board! Please join us again this week!
I love it for busy morning breakfasts 🙂
Would this work with steel cut oats?
Yes, you can use steel cut oats. I just wouldn’t recommend quick cooking oats.
Holy cow does that look amazing! I know what I will be making for breakfast tomorrow 🙂
Thanks Desiree!

I am a HUGE overnight oats fan! These look fabulous!
Thanks Chelsea! Love your blog btw!
I really wish I liked overnight oatmeal. I’ve really tried to like it but something about the texture of it, I just can’t get past it. However, it does look terrific.
It’s not for everyone, just like hot oatmeal is not for everyone. Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment 🙂
This looks so delicious! I love peaches in oatmeal.
Isn’t it a great combo?!
That looks fantastic! I, too, am not the biggest fan of oatmeal but I try to incorporate it every chance I get. With peaches…now that’s just yummy!
Thanks Alysia 🙂
Oh my!! This looks so yummy! Your recipes always look so delicious!

Thanks for pinning Blair!
This looks very yummy. Overnight oats came up in conversation last night and I thought I would give it a try. I like things I can make the night before that make my morning easier.
Thanks for sharing,
Kelly
Anything that makes the morning a little easier is a bonus!
Looks great! I stopped eating oats and grains because of how them make me feel, but I still like to look at recipes and figure out how I could modify them for my diet! I would definitely love to make the peach topping, but put it on top of something else! Pretty pictures also!
Maybe cooked quinoa would work as a replacement? I’ve seen some quinoa breakfast bowls but hot instead of cold.
