Overnight oats are popular because they’re ready to go the next morning, they’re an ideal breakfast with good amounts of each macronutrient (carbs, fat and protein), plus you can so easily customize them. This time of year the great overnight oat recipe is with peaches.

Called the peach cobbler overnight oats, it also includes a scoop of vanilla whey protein so you go a little higher in protein than regular overnight oats. Drizzling in some honey and topping with some yogurt, sautéed peaches and cinnamon completes the experience for one of the best tasting breakfasts.

Why add whey protein powder to your overnight oats?

Adding whey protein powder to overnight oats is an easy way to boost both the nutrition and staying power of your breakfast. Here are the main benefits:

• Increases protein intake: Whey protein adds high-quality, complete protein with all nine essential amino acids to help support muscle maintenance and recovery. Ancient Nutrition’s Vanilla Whey Protein also has collagen for added skin and joint benefits.

• Keeps you full longer: Pairing protein with the fiber in oats can increase satiety, helping curb hunger between meals.

• Supports muscle health: Protein helps repair and rebuild muscle tissue after exercise and is especially important for active individuals and healthy aging.

• Creates a creamier texture: Whey protein blends into the oats, making them thicker and creamier after soaking overnight.

• Adds flavor naturally: Flavored whey proteins, such as vanilla or cinnamon, can sweeten overnight oats without the need for much added sugar.

• Makes breakfast more balanced: Combining protein, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats and fiber create a well-rounded meal that provides sustained energy throughout the morning.

• Convenient nutrition: Mixing protein powder into overnight oats is an easy way to increase your daily protein intake without extra cooking or preparation.

For best results, stir the whey protein into the oats with the milk before refrigerating overnight. If the mixture becomes too thick, simply add a splash of milk in the morning and stir before serving.
