Lemon Cheesecake Overnight Oats Recipe


  • Author: Bruna

  • Diet: Gluten Free

Description

These creamy and tangy lemon cheesecake overnight oats are made with a wholesome blend of nutritious ingredients, making them a healthy and convenient treat for busy mornings or quick snacks on-the-go.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (gluten-free if necessary)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or vegan yogurt of choice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice (juice of 1 medium-sized lemon)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. In a container or bowl, combine rolled oats, chia seeds, yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, sea salt, almond milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Give it a thorough stir to ensure all the ingredients are well combined.
  2. Cover the container and refrigerate the oats overnight, or for at least 4 hours. This resting period allows the mixture to soften and thicken into a delightful pudding-like consistency.
  3. When ready to consume, uncover the container and give the mixture a good stir again before serving.
  4. Serve the lemon cheesecake overnight oats as is, or add your favorite toppings for extra flavor and texture. We highly recommend this cashew butter granola. Enjoy!

Notes

You can store the lemon cheesecake overnight oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

While I find it easier to mix the ingredients in a large container or bowl, you can also prepare this recipe directly in individual jars, such as mason jars or weck jars. For the amount of ingredients listed for this recipe, you might need 3 to 4 jars.
