Everything You Need to Make these Oats
Ingredient Notes
- Rolled Oats: Rolled oats are my preferred oat for this recipe, but quick cooking or instant oats will also work. However, you won’t need as much liquid if you use those. Steel-cut oats won’t work the same way.
- Milk: I like almond or soy milk for this recipe, but any unsweetened milk will work. Adding soy or cow’s milk will add 8 g of protein per serving.
- Chia Seeds: Chia seeds add extra fiber and protein but can be omitted or swapped for flax or hemp seeds.
- Almonds: I love the combo of strawberries and almonds together, which is why I call for both sliced almonds and almond extract. You can also use vanilla extract instead of almond extract if you’d like
- Strawberries: Fresh strawberries are best for texture, but you can use frozen strawberries if desired. Of course, any berry will work instead of strawberries if you’d like!
How to Make Strawberry Overnight Oats
Mix together everything in a jar
Add all of the ingredients to a sealable jar. Make sure to mix well so the banana is mixed into all of the oats.
Place in fridge overnight
Place in fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. Top with more sliced strawberries and chopped almonds, if desired, and enjoy
How to Store
You can make these ahead of time, which is great for meal planning. I use either mason jars or these sealable jars (they are the same ones that I use to make snacks for my kids, like my chocolate pudding).
Substitutions and Variations
There are so many ways to make overnight oats– I’ve got 7 different variations of overnight oats but these strawberry overnight oats are some of my favorite! If you love berries, you’ve got to try these.
From there, you can sub in any type of fresh fruit. Berries work the best in this strawberry overnight oats recipe. Blackberries and blueberries are an easy 1:1 swap.
Instead of chia seeds, you can also use flax or hemp seeds instead.
