Description
A comforting breakfast that combines the tang of cream cheese and Greek yogurt with fresh strawberries and rolled oats, perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain; use dairy-free coconut or almond yogurt for vegan)
- 1/2 cup strawberries, diced
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened (or vegan cream cheese)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (maple for vegan)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl or two 12-oz jars, combine the rolled oats and milk. Stir to hydrate the oats briefly.
- Add the Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix vigorously until smooth.
- Fold in the diced strawberries gently.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 6–8 hours or overnight.
- In the morning, stir and add extra milk if needed. Top with more strawberries and serve chilled.
Notes
Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture; room-temperature cream cheese blends more easily. Adjust sweetness based on preference.
