Strawberry Yogurt Overnight Oats
Creamy and lightly sweet, these Strawberry Yogurt Overnight Oats are packed with fresh berry flavor and perfect for a quick breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
For the Base
- 1 cup rolled oats (about 90 g) Do not use instant oats; rolled oats give the best texture after soaking.
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (about 245 g) For dairy-free, use a thick plant-based yogurt.
- 1 cup milk, almond or whole (240 ml) Use almond milk for a lower-calorie option or whole milk for richer creaminess.
For the Fruit
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (about 150 g) For the best flavor, use fresh berries.
For Sweetening & Texture
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup Replace with maple syrup for a vegan option.
- 2 tbsp chia seeds (about 20 g) These help thicken the mixture.
Instructions
Preparation
- Measure all ingredients. Wash and hull the strawberries, then chop them into small pieces.
Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a mixing bowl, add the rolled oats and chia seeds. Stir briefly to combine.
Mix Wet Ingredients
- Add the Greek yogurt and milk to the dry mix. Stir thoroughly until oats are well-coated and chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Sweeten
- Sweeten with honey or maple syrup and stir again until blended. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
Fold in Strawberries
- Gently fold in the chopped strawberries so they stay intact and distribute evenly.
Portion and Chill
- Divide the mixture into jars or containers with lids. Refrigerate overnight or for at least four hours.
Notes
Store in individual jars to make portion control and grab-and-go simple. If the mixture is too thick in the morning, stir in a splash of milk.
