- Add the Peaches: Gently fold in the diced peach pieces.

- Add a Crunch: For a true cobbler experience, sprinkle some granola or crushed nuts on top before serving.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen peaches for this recipe?
Yes, you can use frozen peaches. Just let them thaw a bit before mixing them in, or they’ll release extra moisture as they thaw.

Rolled oats are ideal as they maintain a nice texture. Quick oats can be used but may end up softer, while steel-cut oats are too tough for this recipe.

You can store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making them a convenient option for meal prepping.
Can I heat the overnight oats before eating?
Absolutely! If you prefer a warm breakfast, simply heat them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through.
