Peach Pie Overnight Oats

Image
This is a healthy filling breakfast to start your day off right!  Letting this set overnight really thickens up the oats and makes it very filling.  I used fresh peaches and that made this taste amazing!  I mixed some peeled and diced peaches into the mixture and added some extra to the top.  Super yummy!  I recently bought some chia seeds and started using them the first time.  Chia seed are loaded with fiber and protein making them a great addition to this healthy breakfast.  Hope you enjoy!                                                  _________________________________ Printable Recipe Ingredients: 2 cups oats 2 cups almond milk 2 peaches, peeled and diced 2 Tablespoons maple syrup 1Tablespoon chia seeds 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 pinch nutmeg Directions Mix all ingredients together Cover and place in the fridge overnight.
