Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 cup Rolled Oats Provides structure and fiber; substitute with ground oats for a finer texture.
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder Adds protein for energy; swap for your favorite flavor to customize taste.
  • ½ cup Almond Butter Acts as a binding agent with healthy fats; can be replaced with peanut butter or sunbutter for allergen considerations.
For the Sweetness
  • ¼ cup Honey Sweetens the mixture and aids binding; maple syrup works as a vegan substitute.
For the Freshness
  • ½ cup Chopped Strawberries Infuses fresh fruit flavors and moisture; use thawed frozen strawberries for convenience.
For the Creaminess
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese Contributes to the cheesecake flavor and creamy texture; opt for light cream cheese or a dairy-free alternative as needed.
