Prepare the strawberries: Heat oven to 350 F. In a medium dish, toss the strawberries with the vanilla and pinch of sugar. Cook for about 25 minutes or until fragrant and soft. Let cool and set aside.

Prepare the balsamic reduction: Add about ½ cup of balsamic vinegar (or more!) to a small sauce pan and heat on medium low or low, until the liquid just comes to a simmer. Let it cook until it begins to thicken, stirring occasionally. You should see the difference - as the vinegar cooks down the height of the liquid will decrease. It will thicken a bit more as it cools; this took me about 20 minutes.

Prepare overnight oats: Combine all oat ingredients in a small bowl; stir to combine. You can blend the hemp // almond milk // vanilla if you want a creamier vs. nutty/crunchy texture. Store in the fridge overnight.

Assemble: Remove your overnight oats from the fridge if you prepped them ahead of time, OR cook oats as usual on the stovetop with all ingredients until creamy. Top with strawberries, any other nuts and/or seeds of your choosing, then drizzle with the balsamic reduction and finally, top with basil! Enjoy!
