Strawberry Protein Overnight Oats with Greek Yogurt (High Protein)
Description
This recipe layers protein-rich Greek yogurt and vanilla protein powder with old-fashioned oats, milk of choice, and optional chia seeds. Sweeteners like stevia or honey, along with vanilla and strawberry extracts, customize flavor. Finely diced fresh strawberries and strawberry preserves are folded in for fruit flavor and texture. The mix is refrigerated for several hours, typically overnight, allowing oats to absorb liquid and soften, while flavors meld.
The final texture is creamy and thick with recognizable bits of strawberry and a balance of sweet and tangy notes. It offers a substantial breakfast or snack option that can be prepped in advance for busy mornings. The protein content supports muscle maintenance and satiety.
This recipe is suitable for meal prepping multiple jars that stay fresh refrigerated for 4-5 days. Adjust milk quantity to reach desired creaminess or texture. Stir occasionally after adding preserves to distribute fruit without overly blending.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt plain, 120g
- 1/3 cup milk of choice (80g), + more as needed, I used almond milk
- 1/3 cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 Tbsp vanilla protein powder 15g
- 1 tsp chia seeds optional
- 1/2 tsp stevia or honey/sweetener of choice to taste, liquid form
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract optional
- 1/2 tsp strawberry extract optional
- 1/4 cup strawberries finely diced
- 1 Tbsp Strawberry Preserves I used reduced suagr
Instructions
- To a mason jar, meal prep container or bowl, add all the ingredients (except the strawberries and strawberry preserves) and mix very well until combined.
- Add the strawberries and strawberry preserves and give it a good stir 2-3 times without overly mixing.
- Cover with a lid or saran wrap and place in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours. For best, creamist results, let sit for at least 8 hours.
Notes
- Prepare multiple jars at once for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts lasting up to 4-5 days refrigerated.
- Adjust the amount of milk added to achieve preferred consistency, adding more as needed.
- Gently stir in strawberries and preserves to retain pieces rather than mixing them fully.
- Chill the mixture for at least 2 hours; 8 hours is best for creaminess.
