Ingredients
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
2 tbsp cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Prepare the Base: In a jar or container, combine the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and the cream cheese is fully incorporated into the mixture.
Add Chia Seeds (Optional): For added thickness and nutrition, stir in the chia seeds. They will help thicken the oats overnight.
Mix in the Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Refrigerate: Seal the jar or container and refrigerate overnight, allowing the oats to soak up the liquid and flavors.
Serve: The next morning, give your oats a quick stir. If desired, add extra fresh strawberries or toppings like granola, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
Notes
You can prepare multiple servings at once and store them in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
Feel free to customize with other fruits like blueberries or raspberries for a twist on the classic flavor.
