Strawberry Cream Oats (Printable Recipe)

Layers of smooth oats and juicy strawberries for a quick, no-stress morning treat. No fuss, loads of taste, done fast.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - Pinch of salt
02 - 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
03 - 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
04 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds
05 - 60 g plain Greek yogurt
06 - 120 ml milk (plant-based or dairy)
07 - 50 g rolled old-fashioned oats

→ Strawberry Layer

08 - 1 tablespoon strawberry jam
09 - 110 g fresh diced strawberries

→ Optional Add-ins

10 - Extra splash of cream
11 - 1 tablespoon sliced almonds or chopped pistachios
12 - Small handful white chocolate chips
13 - Sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs
14 - 1 tablespoon cream cheese

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Just toss oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, honey or maple, vanilla, and a hint of salt into a jar you can close. Give everything a solid mix to get it all blended.
02 - Now, toss in chopped strawberries and a spoonful of jam. Fold it in gently so you don't mash them up and you get fruit bits everywhere.
03 - Want a twist? You can mix in cream cheese, a little white chocolate, maybe some nuts, graham cracker crumbs, or a splash of cream. Totally up to you.
04 - Pop a lid on your jar and stick it in the fridge overnight or for at least six hours. The oats and seeds will drink up the liquid and get nice and soft.
05 - Give your oats a stir in the morning. If you're into it, add extra berries, nuts, or even a bit more cream on top. Eat straight from the jar or throw it in a bowl. Easy.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Grab thick Greek yogurt if you want these extra creamy. Making these in individual jars is super handy, especially for grab-and-go breakfasts all week.
