Ingredients & Substitutions for Berry Cheesecake Overnight Oats
Oats- This recipe uses rolled oats, but you can use quick oats, just use slightly less liquid
Protein Powder- I use a vegan based protein from MacroMike, use my code amb-eliyaeats to save 10% (I am a proud MacroMike Ambassador!) The flavour I use in this particular recipe is Vanilla Buttercream
Sweetener- I use a zero calorie sweetener Natvia, but it is totally optional, the oats will be quite sweet from the protein + berries. You could use any sweetener including maple syrup or honey
Almond Milk- You can sub for any milk of choice
Yogurt- Essential to provide creaminess & thickness to the cheesecake layer. I use a high protein vanilla flavoured greek yogurt however plain greek yogurt will work super well. I use Yopro High Protein Vanilla Greek yogurt
Chia Seeds- A good source of fat (high in omega 3’s), fiber and helps to thicken the overnight oats
Light Cream Cheese- for the cheesecake flavour
Blueberries- Fresh or frozen
Dessicated Coconut- Optional sprinkle for topping
Tips
Let the oats set in the fridge- I recommend leaving it for 8 hours (overnight) or a minimum of 5 hours
Let the oats layer sit in the freezer- When whipping up the cheesecake layer, that way it will be easier to spread over the oats layer
Meal prep- Overnight oats will last up to 5 days in the fridge, so this is perfect for meal prepping.
How to Store Raspberry White Chocolate Overnight Oats
Store the overnight oats in the refrigerator in airtight containers or jars for up to five days.
After 3 days or so you may find that the liquid has separated slightly from the oats, just give it a quick stir before eating.
