Mix rolled oats, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl until evenly distributed.
03 -
Whisk milk, Greek yogurt, eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until smooth.
04 -
Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and stir until combined. Gently fold in sliced strawberries.

Blend softened cream cheese with milk until smooth to create the swirl.
06 -
Pour half the oat mixture into the dish. Drop spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture on top, then cover with remaining oat mixture. Swirl gently with a knife.
07 -
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until golden on top and set inside. Test doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.

Use plant-based milk and yogurt to make the dish dairy-free; softened cream cheese is essential for the classic flavor.
