A quick and easy overnight oats recipe featuring ripe peaches and a tangy raspberry compote, perfect for a fresh, wholesome summer breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (45g)
  • ½ cup milk (120ml), any kind (dairy, almond, oat)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt (60g), plain or vanilla
  • 1 medium ripe peach, sliced thinly
  • ¾ cup fresh or frozen raspberries (100g)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Raspberry Compote: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine raspberries, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice. Stir occasionally as the berries soften and break down, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Mix the Overnight Oats: In a mason jar or container, combine rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, chia seeds (if using), and salt. Stir well to combine.
  3. Add Fresh Peaches: Slice the ripe peach thinly and gently fold half of the slices into the oat mixture. Reserve the rest for topping in the morning.
  4. Sweeten: Drizzle 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup over the oats and stir gently. Adjust sweetness to taste.
  5. Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the jar or container tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. Serve: Stir the oats gently in the morning. Spoon the raspberry compote over the top along with the reserved peach slices. Optionally, sprinkle extra chia seeds or crushed nuts for crunch.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; avoid instant oats. Do not overcook the raspberry compote to keep vibrant color and texture. Add lemon juice to the compote to enhance flavor. Chia seeds help thicken the oats if desired. If oats are too thick in the morning, stir in a splash of milk. The compote can be made in the microwave as a quicker alternative.
