Strawberries and cream overnight oats make a delightful and nutritious make ahead breakfast. This dish involves soaking rolled oats overnight in a mixture of milk and yogurt allowing them to soften and absorb the flavors.
Overnight oats are my favorite grab n go breakfast. It's not only delicious but also convenient and healthy. During spring and summer time when fresh strawberries are abundantly available, I prepare it overnight and enjoy a ready-to-eat breakfast in the morning.
Plus, it's highly customizable, allowing you to adjust the sweetness, add-ins, and toppings to suit your taste preferences. Similar to Cottage Cheese Fruit Parfaits, this is my favorite easy breakfast recipe.

It's a wholesome and satisfying way to start your day. A great way to get sustained energy and keeping you feeling full until your next meal.
Ingredients
The basic ingredients for strawberries and cream overnight oats include rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, fresh strawberries, and a sweetener. Add chia seeds and ground flax seed for additional nutrients.
How to Make
- In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, honey (or maple syrup), chia seeds, flax seed powder and half of the cut strawberries. Stir until well combined. Seal the jar or container tightly and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
- The next morning, give your oats a good stir to mix everything together. If you notice that mixture is too thick to stir, stir in additional cold milk.
- Top it off with extra sliced strawberries. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness.

Pro Tips
- Use Rolled Oats (Old-Fashioned Oats): Rolled oats are the classic choice for overnight oats. They have a hearty texture and absorb liquids well. It yields a creamy consistency after soaking overnight. Rolled oats also maintain a bit of chewiness, which adds to the overall texture of the dish.
- Choose Ripe, Sweet Strawberries: The key to achieving maximum flavor in your overnight oats is using ripe, sweet strawberries. Look for berries that are deep red in color, firm, and fragrant. Ripe strawberries not only add natural sweetness to your oats but also infuse them with a fresh and vibrant taste.
