Recipe Notes
Make this blueberry cheesecake overnight oats by substituting blueberries for the raspberries.
For a more intense raspberry flavor, mash raspberries and stir into mixture before refrigerating overnight.
If you aren’t a fan of the artificial sweeteners in the sugar-free Jell-o mix, substitute the 0.85 ounces of ¼th of the box of regular cheesecake Jell-o instant pudding mix (the regular kind weighs more than sugar free so you need to use more.)
Make this on the stove top: Add oats, almond milk and Jell-o cheesecake instant pudding mix to small saucepan and stir to combine. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, 5 to 10 minutes, or until cooked. Top with raspberries before serving.
Make this in the microwave: Stir oats, almond milk and cheesecake instant pudding mix in microwave-safe bowl or mug until well mixed. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Stop and stir. Continue cooking for 1 minute, stopping to stir every 15-20 seconds to prevent oatmeal from scorching or bubbling over. Remove from microwave and let stand for at least 2 minutes before topping with raspberries.
Raspberry cheesecake overnight oats offer a delightful fusion of creamy indulgence and fruity freshness, making for a perfect breakfast or snack that satisfies both the palate and the health-conscious mind. This recipe cleverly combines the comforting familiarity of oats with the rich essence of cheesecake, all while incorporating the vibrant sweetness of fresh raspberries.
To start, a mere handful of ingredients are required: old-fashioned rolled oats, unsweetened almond milk, and a touch of fat-free, sugar-free Jell-o cheesecake instant pudding mix. These elements come together effortlessly, creating a creamy base that’s both satisfying and guilt-free. The incorporation of the cheesecake pudding mix infuses the oats with a decadent flavor reminiscent of everyone’s favorite dessert, yet without the added sugar and fat typically found in traditional cheesecake recipes.
The addition of fresh raspberries elevates this dish to a whole new level.

Whether gently layered atop the oats or mashed into the mixture for an intensified raspberry flavor, these berries add a refreshing zing that enhances each spoonful.
