You just might be seeing the strawberry shortcake overnight oats fairy in your dreams the night before you get to enjoy this tasty breakfast treat!

And what a treat these strawberry overnight oats are!!

They taste like you are cheating on whatever life-diet you are on, but in fact, they are gluten-free, vegetarian, free of refined sugars and can easily be made vegan.

Your taste buds need a good fake-out.

Are these Strawberry Shortcake Overnight Oats Just for Breakfast?

Absolutely not!!  We snack on them all throughout the day.

A bit in the morning, a bite in the afternoon, and an after-dinner spoonful or two for a sweet treat.

To Nuke, or Not to Nuke?

When I first posted the recipe for Maple & Brown Sugar Overnight Oats I was asked whether or not the oats needed to be heated up or not.  The answer… it is totally up to you!!

We like to eat our overnight oats straight out of the refrigerator, especially when it is blazing hot outside here in Texas.

If you prefer your overnight oats heated, simply stir your oats and then microwave them until your desired temperature is reached.  Just know that the texture of the oats may be affected.
