Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (to taste)
Fruit and Seeds
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Toppings (Optional)
- Crushed graham crackers
- Additional fresh strawberries
- Drizzle of honey
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or jar, add the rolled oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, chopped strawberries, maple syrup or honey, softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and chia seeds if using. Stir thoroughly until the cream cheese is completely incorporated and all ingredients are evenly blended.
- Refrigerate: Cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
- Stir and Adjust Consistency: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen the consistency to your liking.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Top with crushed graham crackers, extra fresh strawberries, or a drizzle of honey before serving to add texture and extra flavor.
Notes
- For extra protein, opt for high-protein Greek yogurt or add a scoop of your preferred protein powder.
- For a smoother, more cheesecake-like texture, blend half of the strawberries before mixing.
- You can swap almond milk with any milk alternative or dairy milk based on preference or dietary needs.
- Chia seeds are optional but add additional fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- This recipe can be prepared in individual jars for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts.
