Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
3/4 cup diced strawberries (fresh or frozen)

Add-ins and Optional Ingredients

2 tablespoons chia seeds
1/4–1/2 cup water (optional, if mixture is very thick)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)

Instructions

Combine Ingredients: In a pint-sized mason jar or airtight container, mix together the old-fashioned oats, milk, strawberry Greek yogurt, chia seeds, diced strawberries, and if using, the vanilla protein powder. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Adjust Consistency: If the mixture appears very thick, add between 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water to reach your desired consistency. Stir again to combine.
Refrigerate: Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator. Let it sit overnight or for at least two hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
Serve and Enjoy: After soaking, give the oats a good stir and enjoy your creamy, nutritious strawberries and cream overnight oats chilled. Optionally, top with extra fresh strawberries or nuts for added texture.

Notes

Using old-fashioned oats is recommended for the best texture; quick oats may become too mushy.
You can substitute the strawberry Greek yogurt with plain or vanilla Greek yogurt and add extra fresh strawberries for natural sweetness.
If dairy-free, swap milk and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives like almond or coconut milk and coconut yogurt.
This recipe can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Add nuts or seeds at serving time to maintain their crunch.
Adjust sweetness by adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if desired.
