Description
Wake up to a delightful breakfast with these easy-to-make Strawberries and Cream Overnight Oats. This recipe delivers a creamy, flavorful, and satisfying meal that’s ready when you are.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for extra thickness and nutrition)
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, e.g., almond, oat, whole milk)
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (plus extra for topping)
- Optional toppings: Greek yogurt, whipped cream, nuts, granola
Instructions
- In a 12-16 ounce jar or airtight container, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), maple syrup/honey, and vanilla extract.
- Pour in the milk and stir well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed and the oats are submerged.
- Gently fold in about half of the chopped strawberries.
- Seal the jar tightly with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight (8 hours), allowing the oats to soften and absorb the liquid.
- In the morning, give the oats a quick stir. If too thick, add a splash more milk. Top with the remaining fresh strawberries and any other desired toppings before serving.
