Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats Base
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup diced fresh strawberries
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Toppings
- Crushed graham crackers
- Extra fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mason jar or airtight container, add the rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, diced strawberries, softened cream cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and chia seeds if using. Stir thoroughly until the cream cheese is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Seal the container tightly and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soften and flavors to meld.
- Stir and Serve: The next morning, give the oats a good stir to combine any separated ingredients. Top with additional fresh strawberries and a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers for extra texture and flavor before serving.
Notes
- If fresh strawberries are unavailable, frozen strawberries can be used—just thaw and drain excess liquid before adding.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup or honey according to your taste preference.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt and cream cheese with plant-based alternatives.
