- Mix the Oats Base: In a mason jar, combine rolled oats, milk, pumpkin purée, chia seeds, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and maple syrup. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
- Make the Cheesecake Layer: In a small bowl, blend Greek yogurt or cream cheese with milk and maple syrup until smooth and creamy.
- Layer the Oats & Cheesecake Mix: Spoon half of the oat mixture into the jar, then add a layer of the cheesecake mixture, followed by the remaining oats mixture on top.
- Seal & Chill Overnight: Cover the jar tightly and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow the oats to soak and flavors to meld.

Notes
- You can use any type of milk, such as almond, soy, or cow’s milk, depending on your dietary preference.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based milk and choose maple syrup instead of honey.
- Chia seeds help thicken the oats and add extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Adjust the sweetness by increasing or decreasing the maple syrup or honey.
- Prepare multiple jars at once for a quick grab-and-go breakfast throughout the week.
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt or cream cheese for a richer texture and flavor.
