Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based, like almond or oat milk)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or plant-based yogurt)

Add-ins

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added fiber)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit & Toppings

  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced
  • 1 tablespoon sliced almonds or granola (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Combine Base Ingredients: In a mason jar or airtight container, mix rolled oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined. This forms the creamy overnight oat mixture.
  2. Add Strawberries: Gently fold in the diced fresh strawberries to evenly distribute them throughout the oat mixture without breaking the fruit.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the container tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.
  4. Stir Before Serving: In the morning, stir the oats well, adding additional milk if you prefer a thinner, creamier consistency.
  5. Add Toppings and Serve: Top with more fresh strawberries and your choice of sliced almonds or granola for extra texture and crunch, then enjoy your nutritious breakfast.

Notes

  • Use plant-based milk and yogurt for a vegan version.
  • Soaking oats overnight improves digestibility and texture while saving prep time in the morning.
  • Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
