Power Up Your Oats: Simple Protein Boosts
If you’re looking to get more out of this dish, boosting the protein content is a great way to start. There are lots of customizations you can make to my Easy Peaches and Cream Overnight Oats that will keep you feeling fuller for longer, giving you lasting energy throughout the day. There are plenty of plant-based additions and substitutions you can make, for example:
Milk Alternatives: Use soy milk instead of coconut milk and get almost 50% more protein per serving. Nuts and Seeds: Most tree nuts contain about 3 to 6 grams of protein per handful, so add peanuts, almonds, walnuts, pistachios, etc. for a healthy protein boost and a delicious crunch. Alternatively, add hemp hearts! Protein Powder: Mix your favorite plant-based protein powder into the oats, but keep in mind that you may have to add some more milk to reach the desired consistency. Nut Butters: Mix in or top off your oats with your favorite nut butter for a delicious bite.
Storing the Easy Peaches and Cream Overnight Oats
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you are doubling or quadrupling the recipe, divide into individual cups or bowls before refrigerating. This will make it easier to take out single servings of the overnight oats.
