Blender

Method

In your blender, add the unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk), Greek yogurt, and cream cheese. Blending these first helps create a smoother base for the oats and other ingredients.
1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon cream cheese
Next, add the rolled oats and your scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder to the blender. If you're using a very thick protein powder, you might need to add an extra splash of milk later.

Add the frozen strawberries, sweetener (adjust to your desired sweetness), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt if using. The frozen strawberries will help create a thick, frosty texture without needing ice.

Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. This may take 30-60 seconds, depending on your blender's power. If the mixture is too thick, add more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.

Pour the blended oat mixture into a bowl. Top with fresh strawberries, a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers for that cheesecake crunch, an extra dollop of Greek yogurt, or a scattering of chia seeds for added texture and nutrition.

Notes

Store any leftover High Protein Blended Strawberry Cheesecake Oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. The texture may thicken slightly upon chilling, which is perfectly normal.
