These high-protein overnight oats are blended for a smoothie-like texture and packed with over 35 grams of protein per serving. Made with vanilla protein powder, Greek yogurt, and strawberry purée, it’s like dessert for breakfast.
Blend the Base: In a blender, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup oat milk, 2 scoops vanilla protein powder, ½ cup Greek yogurt, and ½ cup strawberry purée. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Adjust Sweetness: Taste and add honey or a splash of vanilla extract if needed, depending on your protein powder and how sweet your strawberries are.
Layer and Swirl: Pour half of the oat mixture into a jar or container. Add a generous scoop of the reserved ⅓ cup strawberry purée on top. Add the remaining oat mixture, then another scoop of purée. Use a spoon or chopstick to gently swirl the layers together to create a marbled effect.
Chill Overnight: Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
Serve and Enjoy: In the morning, you can stir it up or leave the pretty swirls as-is. Top with sliced strawberries and serve! You could also add granola, or nut butter if you’d like.
Notes
(1) For best texture, blend the oats before refrigerating. It creates a thick, creamy consistency—almost like pudding!(2) Use frozen strawberries if fresh aren’t in season—just thaw before blending.(3) The 1:1 oats-to-milk ratio is ideal for blended overnight oats.
