Ingredients

Peanut Butter Cheesecake Overnight Oats

2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
3 tablespoons plain cream cheese spread (from a tub) softened to room temperature
Pinch of salt
2/3 cup (158g) unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or whatever milk you prefer)
1/3 cup (74g) vanilla Greek yogurt (we like Greek Gods Honey Vanilla yogurt)
1/2 cup (55g) old-fashioned oats
2 tablespoons maple syrup (See Note 1)
Optional toppings: additional peanut butter, miniature chocolate chips

Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
3 tablespoons plain cream cheese spread (from a tub), softened to room temperature
2/3 cup (158g) unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or whatever milk you prefer)
1/3 cup (74g) vanilla Greek yogurt (we like Greek Gods Honey Vanilla yogurt)
1/2 cup (55g) old-fashioned oats
2 tablespoons maple syrup (See Note 1)
1/4 cup (45g) ripe, fresh strawberries, finely chopped
Optional toppings: additional fresh strawberries, 1/2 tablespoon coarsely chopped white chocolate, 1 tablespoon broken up graham cracker

Instructions

PEANUT BUTTER VERSION: Place the peanut butter, vanilla extract, soft cream cheese, salt, almond milk, yogurt, old-fashioned oats, and maple syrup in a small bowl, jar, or plastic container. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated; this can take some time and patience to make sure the cream cheese is sufficiently mixed in. Taste the mixture and add any additional maple syrup if desired.
STRAWBERRY VERSION: Place the vanilla extract, soft cream cheese, salt, almond milk, yogurt, old-fashioned oats, and maple syrup in a small bowl, jar, or plastic container. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated; this can take some time and patience to make sure the cream cheese is sufficiently mixed in. Taste the mixture and add any additional maple syrup if desired. Gently mix in the coarsely chopped strawberries.
CHILL: Cover and refrigerate overnight or until sufficiently cooled and thickened (Sometimes I'll even make them in the morning, get ready, and then go eat them -- they are great even after just 30 minutes in the fridge).
ENJOY: Enjoy these softened oats, cold and straight out the fridge garnished with any optional toppings as desired.
Store overnight oats in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

As written, these overnight oats are intended to be quite creamy. If you'd prefer them thicker, add a few tablespoons of additional oats and/or 1-2 tablespoons chia seeds.

Note 1: Sweetener: Scale up or down to personal preference -- you may not even want any sweetener! Two tablespoons maple syrup is what we prefer in these oats. Alternatively, use 1/4 teaspoon liquid stevia drops for a zero- calorie sweetener.
