Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup milk (dairy or unsweetened almond milk)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese, softened
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (halal-friendly)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1–2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (to taste)
  • ½ cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, whisk together milk, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, vanilla protein powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in rolled oats and chia seeds, mixing thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries, taking care not to crush them, so they remain fresh within the mixture.
  4. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb moisture, thickening the mixture to a creamy consistency.
  5. Serve: Before serving, stir the oats well to incorporate any settled ingredients, enhancing the texture and flavor.
  6. Add Toppings: Customize your overnight oats by adding extra chopped strawberries, crushed graham crackers, or a drizzle of honey for added sweetness and texture.

Notes

  • Use plain or vanilla Greek yogurt based on your preferred flavor intensity.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute with almond milk and dairy-free cream cheese alternatives.
  • Chilling overnight enhances flavors and thickens the oats for the perfect cheesecake-like consistency.
  • This recipe is halal-friendly due to the use of halal-certified protein powder.
  • Serve cold straight from the refrigerator or let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes if preferred.
