Berry Cheesecake Overnight Oats
Berry Cheesecake Overnight Oats is made ahead with whole rolled oats, chia seeds, almond milk, with a maple Greek yogurt-cream-cheese mixture. Makes 5 jars.
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole rolled oats
- 3 tablespoon chia seeds
- ⅓ cup light cream cheese, softened
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt plain
- 3 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
Make the oats:
- Use a large mixing bowl and add the oats, chia seeds, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract, and almond milk and whisk vigorously until smooth. Let thicken on the counter for 5-10 minutes. TIP: If the cream cheese is not soft, microwave it for about 10 seconds to soften.
Mash berries:
- If using frozen blueberries, defrost them in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Remove and mash with a fork until jam-like in texture. Otherwise, mash fresh berries the same way with a fork.
Make individual servings:
- In 5 small jars or small bowls, evenly distribute the oat mixture. Add the mashed blueberries on top.
- Seal the jars with a lid or cover tightly with plastic wrap. Put the jars in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Add additional toppings before serving and enjoy.
- Optional to serve cold or you can reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Don’t over-heat.
- Enjoy!
