A quick and easy recipe for Strawberry Overnight Oats with Yogurt, combining rolled oats, milk, yogurt, honey, vanilla, and fresh strawberries. Perfect for a healthy and delicious make-ahead breakfast that requires no cooking and is ready to enjoy in the morning.
Ingredients
Overnight Oats Base
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups milk (any type, such as cow’s milk, almond milk, or oat milk)
- 1 cup plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup, to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl or two mason jars, combine the rolled oats, milk, plain yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix these ingredients together thoroughly to create the base for your overnight oats.
- Add Strawberries: Chop the fresh strawberries into small pieces. Stir the chopped strawberries into the oat mixture evenly to distribute the fruit throughout the mixture.
- Mix Well: Stir the mixture thoroughly until all the ingredients are well combined and the oats are fully immersed in the liquid, ensuring even soaking overnight.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jars with lids or plastic wrap. Refrigerate the mixture overnight, or for at least 4-6 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid, soften, and meld with the flavors.
Notes
- Use any type of milk you prefer—dairy or plant-based—to adjust for dietary preferences or needs.
- Adjust the sweetness by increasing or decreasing the amount of honey or maple syrup.
- Overnight oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
- Feel free to add nuts, seeds, or other fruits to enhance texture and nutrition.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a splash of milk before serving.
