How to Make It

Create this delicious breakfast in just a few simple steps.

Cook the Peaches

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced peaches, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are soft and caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Mix the Oats

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure that the oats are fully submerged in the liquid.

Layer the Ingredients

In a clear glass or jar, start by adding a layer of the oat mixture at the bottom. Follow with a layer of the caramelized peaches, then add another layer of oats. Repeat the process until the glass is filled, finishing with a layer of peaches on top.

Chill Overnight

Cover the glass or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.

How to Store It

Fridge: Up to 4 days in an airtight container.
Freezer: No; it affects texture.
Reheat: N/A; best served cold.

Tips for Best Results

• Make sure the oats are completely submerged in liquid for optimal texture.
• Allow peaches to cool slightly before layering to avoid heating the oats.
• Toast pecans beforehand for added crunch and flavor.
• Experiment with different spices like nutmeg for a unique twist.

Serving Suggestions
