Ingredients
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 tablespoon cream cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1/4 cup strawberries, chopped
- Optional: 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 until all ingredients are well incorporated and the cream cheese is evenly distributed.
- Add Strawberries: Fold in the chopped strawberries gently to distribute the fruit throughout the mixture without mashing them.
- Refrigerate: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator to soak and thicken overnight for at least 6-8 hours, allowing the oats and cream cheese to soften and flavors to meld.
- Top and Serve: The next morning, give the oats a good stir and add extra fresh strawberries on top if desired. Serve chilled for a refreshing and nutritious breakfast.
Notes
- You can substitute the milk with any dairy-free alternative like almond, oat, or soy milk to make it vegan-friendly.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to taste.
- For a thicker consistency, use less milk or add chia seeds for extra texture and nutrition.
- Make multiple servings in jars for an easy grab-and-go breakfast option throughout the week.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to mix smoothly and avoid lumps.
