Strawberry cheesecake overnight oats combine the delicious flavors of creamy cheesecake with sweet strawberries and hearty oats. Here's how to make this tasty and nutritious breakfast treat:
– 1/2 cup rolled oat – 1/2 cup Greek yogurt – 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
– 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste) – 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract – 2-3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup sliced strawberrie – Graham crackers, crushed (for topping, optional)
1. Mix Base Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.
1. Add Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the oat mixture. Stir until the cream cheese is evenly distributed throughout the mixture. This will give your overnight oats a creamy cheesecake flavor.
Layer with Strawberries: Layer half of the sliced strawberries on top of the oat mixture.
1. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers by adding another layer of the oat mixture followed by the remaining sliced strawberries.
1. Cover and Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats to soften and absorb the flavors.
1. Serve: When ready to eat, give the oats a good stir to mix everything together. If desired, top with additional sliced strawberries and crushed graham crackers for added texture and flavor.
1. Enjoy: Dig in and enjoy your delicious and satisfying strawberry cheesecake overnight oats!
