Ingredients
Scale
Overnight Oats Mixture
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Toppings
- Crushed graham crackers or granola for topping
Instructions
- Combine Oats and Milk: In a medium-sized bowl, mix the rolled oats and unsweetened almond milk until the oats are fully soaked and the mixture is uniform.
- Add Creamy Ingredients: Stir in the plain Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract into the oats mixture. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate Strawberries and Chia Seeds: Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries and optional chia seeds, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Divide the prepared oat mixture into individual jars or bowls. Cover them with lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle crushed graham crackers or granola on top to add a crunchy texture. Enjoy the overnight oats chilled directly from the refrigerator or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes if preferred.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt and cream cheese for a richer, creamier texture; low-fat versions can be substituted for a lighter option.
- Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and help thicken the oats.
- You can substitute almond milk with any other milk of your choice, such as dairy milk, soy milk, or oat milk.
- For added sweetness or a twist, consider adding a drizzle of maple syrup or a handful of nuts.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making this recipe great for meal prepping.
- To make this vegan, replace the Greek yogurt and cream cheese with plant-based alternatives.
