Instructions
Creating Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats is a straightforward process. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Combine Oats and Liquid: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully soaked.
2. Add Yogurt and Sweetener: Add the Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract to the oat mixture. Mix until everything is well combined.
3. Incorporate Cream Cheese: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with a little bit of the oat mixture until smooth. This will help avoid lumps.
4. Combine Everything: Fold the cream cheese mixture back into the oats, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
5. Stir in Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, reserving a few for topping later.
6. Add Salt: Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors and stir again.
7. Transfer to Jars: Divide the mixture into individual jars or containers with lids.
8. Chill Overnight: Cover the jars and refrigerate overnight, allowing the oats to absorb the liquid and flavors.
9. Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir, add your reserved strawberries, and any additional toppings you desire.
With these simple steps, you’ll have a delicious breakfast ready to go!
