Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Flavor Components
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese
- 1/4 cup strawberries, chopped
Optional Toppings
- Additional strawberries for topping
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cream cheese. Stir thoroughly to create a smooth and creamy mixture, ensuring the cream cheese is well incorporated.
- Add Strawberries: Fold in the chopped strawberries gently, mixing them evenly throughout the oats mixture without mashing them.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar tightly and place it in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 6 hours) to allow the oats to soak and soften, and the flavors to meld together.
- Top and Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir to combine any separated liquids. Add extra fresh strawberries on top if desired, then enjoy your creamy strawberry cheesecake overnight oats straight from the jar or bowl.
