Overnight oats? Sorta, but not really. You see, traditional overnight oats are made with rolled oats and milk. You place them in a jar together, and the oats soften overnight. But, to us, the end result is more like a paste. It’s a texture that we just can’t get around.
This healthy strawberry parfait is the solution to not having pasty overnight oats. It gives you the grab-n-go convenience of overnight oats, but with a much heartier texture. We used our steel-cut oatmeal in this, so you get the texture and flavor of long, slow-cooked oats, but with a speedier pace!
If you are making one jar for breakfast, we recommend cooking up 1 whole package of oatmeal for each jar. If you are making a snack, then we would recommend half a serving per jar.
One of the best parts of creating a parfait or overnight oats is the layers of textures and flavors! There are so many fun and delicious combinations to keep your taste buds from getting bored. In this parfait recipe, we layered in creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and fresh fruit for sweetness!
Other yummy options would be replacing the granola with chocolate chips, switching up the fruit and using mango and coconut for a tropical flavor, or even layering in a few pieces of leftover brownie for a sweet little dessert. The kids would have a ball creating their own layers and combinations for a snack.
But, the best part is that you can prepare all of these in advance and have a healthy and satisfying option ready to get every morning. Long are the days when you will have an excuse not to eat breakfast.
