Oats Mixture
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 Tablespoons cashew butter (or almond butter)
- 1 cup cashew milk (or almond milk)
- 2–3 Tablespoons maple syrup (or to taste)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
Fruits
- 5–6 medium fresh or frozen strawberries
Toppings
- 2 Tablespoons gluten-free graham cracker crumbs (about 1 sheet, crumbled)
- Divide Ingredients Into Jars: Start by splitting the rolled oats, cashew butter, cashew milk, maple syrup, and Greek yogurt evenly between two mason jars.
- Mix & Add Strawberries: Thoroughly mix the ingredients in each jar, then add freshly sliced or frozen strawberries to the mixture, ensuring the fruit is well incorporated for flavor and texture.
- Store Overnight: Secure the lids on the jars and refrigerate them overnight to allow the oats to soak up the liquids and blend flavors, resulting in a creamy, ready-to-eat breakfast.
- Add Graham Cracker Crumbs: The following morning, sprinkle the gluten-free graham cracker crumbs on top of each jar to add a delightful crunchy cheesecake-like finish. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use almond butter and almond milk as alternatives if cashew versions are not available.
- The sweetness can be adjusted by varying the amount of maple syrup added.
- You can prep multiple jars at once for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
- Frozen strawberries work well and add a refreshing chill when mixed in.
- For a vegan variation, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond-based yogurt.
