Protein Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

My clients and nutrition bootcamp members always get a macro-friendly recipe book, and this cheesecake protein overnight oats is one of the most popular recipes from it.

This an easy breakfast recipe that I make again and again for myself and my daughter because it’s so easy.

Cheesecake Protein Overnight Oats Ingredients

• Oats. Quick oats and rolled oats both work fine. Rolled oats can also be called old fashioned or large flake oats.
• Chia seeds. I love chia seeds, they’re truly a powder house of nutrition. They add protein and fiber to the strawberry cheesecake overnight oats. They also absorb some of the liquid in this recipe. Learn more about the Health Benefits of Chia Seeds.
• Vanilla protein powder. Each brand will alter the macros. I like to use ones that are low in carbs (2-3g) and 20-24 grams in protein. I have also used a sugar cookie flavor, and it’s a delicious addition too.
• Sugar free Jello Cheesecake Pudding Mix. If you’re in Canada, read the FAQ below as I have some solutions for you.
• Milk of choice. I make this using dairy-free milk like unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, cashew milk, etc. Or you can use a dairy milk. Tip: if you use Fairlife milk, it’s ultrafiltered and double in protein.
• 0% plain greek yogurt. You can also use Skyr, it will just be a little thicker.
• Lemon juice. I buy the Santa Cruz lemon juice in a jar or use fresh. The concentrated variety doesn’t taste as good.
• Frozen strawberries. Fresh strawberries work too, but frozen adds more as when they melt overnight, it infuses more strawberry flavor.
• Optional: graham crackers for the topping. I used half of one for the photos. Another delicious topping would be a little sugar free strawberry jam.

I don’t use cream cheese in the recipe. What? A cheesecake-inspired recipe without cream cheese? Yup. I have tried it with and without, and I didn’t notice the difference, so I ditched it.

That being said, I am going to experiment with strawberry cream cheese next.

Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats Macros and Nutritional Info

As I stated in the ingredients, if you use a different brand the macros will change a little (different protein powders have different amounts of carbohydrates, proteins, calories, etc).

• 392 calories
• 43 grams of protein
• 36g of carbs
• 9g of fat
• 8g of fiber

As you can see, between the high protein and high fiber you’ll be full for hours after this meal prep breakfast idea.

Want even more protein? You can add a little extra to this high-protein breakfast by adding a scoop of unflavored collagen peptides.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The sugar-free cheesecake Jello Pudding is not celiac-safe. It contains barley, so they’re not 100% gluten-free.

How to Make Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

It’s so easy to make this healthy breakfast option. I love that it takes only a few minutes to make a week’s worth of breakfast (just x4 or x5 the recipe or use the recipe for each serving).

One at a time method

Add all the ingredients to a mason jar, Tupperware container, etc, and stir. Make sure you scrape the sides as the protein powder and chia seeds can collect there.

Put on a lid and refrigerate overnight.

That’s it!

Mixing bowl method

Another option is to double or 4x the recipe and add all the ingredients, except for the berries, to a mixing bowl and stir together.

Pour the oatmeal mixture to meal prep containers, add the berries on top, seal and put in the fridge.

Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs on top.
