Strawberry Blended Overnight Oats
This recipe uses a blender to create a smooth, creamy base for your overnight oats, giving them a texture similar to strawberry cheesecake. It is a simple, make-ahead breakfast ideal for busy mornings.
Equipment
- Blender
- Large bowl or container
- Mason jars or airtight containers
Ingredients
For the Oats
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
For the Strawberry Base
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
For Topping (Optional)
- Fresh strawberries for topping
- Sliced almonds for garnish
- Extra honey for drizzling
Instructions
- Add the fresh strawberries, milk, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to a blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 30 to 45 seconds.
- Pour the blended strawberry mixture into a large bowl or container.
- Add the rolled oats and chia seeds to the strawberry mixture. Stir well until all the oats are fully coated and evenly distributed.
- Divide the mixture evenly between 2 or 3 mason jars or airtight containers with lids.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight (8 to 12 hours), to allow the oats to fully absorb the liquid and soften.
- When you are ready to serve, give the oats a good stir. Top with fresh sliced strawberries, sliced almonds, and a drizzle of honey if you want.
- Eat cold straight from the refrigerator. The oats will keep fresh in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
