A simple and nutritious Strawberry Overnight Oats recipe that combines rolled oats, Greek yogurt, and fresh strawberries sweetened naturally with honey or maple syrup. Perfect for a quick and healthy breakfast prepared the night before.

Ingredients

Strawberries

  • 1/2 cup chopped strawberries
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup or organic cane sugar

Overnight Oats Base

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (old fashioned)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened oat milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (or to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Macerate strawberries: In a small bowl, stir together the chopped strawberries with 1 teaspoon of your choice of sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or organic cane sugar). Allow this mixture to sit while you prepare the oats so the strawberries release their juices.
  2. Mix the oats base: In a jar, container, or bowl, combine the rolled oats, plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened oat milk, chia seeds, additional sweetener (honey or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  3. Add strawberries: Pour the macerated strawberries along with their juices into the oats mixture and stir thoroughly to distribute the berries evenly.
  4. Refrigerate: Cover the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill overnight for best results, or at least 3-4 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
  5. Serve: Remove from the fridge and add any preferred toppings such as nuts, seeds, or extra fresh fruit. Grab a spoon and enjoy a wholesome, ready-to-eat breakfast.

Notes

  • Use your preferred kind of milk such as almond, cow’s milk, or soy milk for different flavor variations.
  • For added texture and nutrition, consider toppings like sliced almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, or shredded coconut.
  • You can adjust the sweetness to taste by adding more honey or maple syrup if desired.
  • To make it vegan, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
  • Chia seeds help thicken the oats and add fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
