Healthy Twists on a Classic
You can switch up the ingredients to make this recipe healthier. Use low-fat cream cheese or swap out the Greek yogurt for a dairy-free option. You can also try using honey instead of maple syrup for sweetness. Adding nuts or seeds can give extra crunch and nutrition.
Serving Suggestions From My Table
I love to serve my Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats with a sprinkle of crushed nuts on top. Fresh mint leaves also make a lovely garnish. Pair it with a cup of warm tea or coffee to start the day right. Feel free to add your favorite toppings like coconut flakes or dark chocolate shavings for an extra treat.
Getting It Just Right
To make sure your oats are creamy and delicious, let them sit overnight. This allows the oats to absorb the flavors. If you prefer a thicker texture, reduce the almond milk slightly. For a sweeter taste, increase the maple syrup to your liking.
How to Store Leftovers
If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last up to three days. You can enjoy them cold or warmed up in the microwave. Just give them a quick stir if they seem thick.
Enjoy Every Moment

You can store them in the refrigerator for up to three days. The oats soften even more and the flavors blend nicely over time.
