“If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.”
1 Corinthians 13:2 NLT
If you’re in the mood for creamy overnight oats and sweet strawberry jam, this is the perfect recipe for you! Strawberry Parfait Overnight Oats are layered with soft, delicious oats, a homemade strawberry chia seed jam, and a touch of yogurt for a nourishing breakfast that feels like dessert.
I love overnight oats because it’s a great grab-and-go breakfast and easy meal prep idea. This recipe has simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. Make it fully vegan by substituting the milk for your favorite non-dairy milk, and using plant-based yogurt.
I’ll show you how to make the overnight oats and strawberry chia seed jam separately which will continue to marinate in their jars while they sit overnight. The strawberry jam adds a burst of fresh, fruity flavor made entirely from real strawberries and sweetened with a little coconut sugar. I hope that you enjoy this yummy breakfast!
Strawberry Parfait Overnight Oats with Strawberry Chia Seed Jam
Ingredients
Method
- Add cleaned, whole strawberries to a sauce pot with the green steams removed. Cook on medium-low heat with water and smash as strawberries soften. Smash until strawberries are fully cooked and mushy.
- Take strawberries off the heat, add maple syrup and chia seeds. Mix together and cool at room temperature for at least 20 minutes. Then refrigerate to continue to thicken.
- To make the overnight oats, add rolled oats, cinnamon, sugar, vanilla, chia seeds, and milk to a bowl. Let sit and refrigerate for 10 minutes to start thickening.
- Assemble parfaits in mason jars by layering overnight oats then strawberry chia seed jam then Greek yogurt. Top with fresh diced strawberries.
