Tiramisu Overnight Oats

These Tiramisu Overnight Oats are a creamy, coffee-infused twist on the classic Italian dessert — but made healthy enough for breakfast! Rolled oats soak overnight in a blend of espresso, Greek yogurt, and a touch of cocoa for a rich flavor, while a layer of velvety cream and a dusting of cacao powder give that authentic tiramisu finish. It’s indulgent, nourishing, and ready to enjoy straight from the fridge in the morning.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Rolled Oats
  • 1 cup Almond Milk
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt or Skyr thick
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

Chocolate Layer

  • 1½ tablespoon cocoa powder divided

Coffee Layer

  • 2 tablespoon strong coffee
  • ½ tablespoon Cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon Rolled Oats

Topping

  • 1 cup Greek Yoghurt or Skyre thick
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions
 

  • 1. Prepare the base: In a mixing bowl, combine the oats and chia seeds.
  • 2. Add the almond milk, yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla, and a small pinch of salt. Stir well. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent chia clumps.
  • 3. Divide into two bowls: Split the oat mixture evenly between two bowls.

Chocolate Layer

  • 4. In the first bowl, stir in 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder until fully combined.

Coffee Layer

  • 5. In the second bowl, add the brewed coffee, ½ tablespoon of cocoa powder, and ½ tablespoon of oats. Mix thoroughly.
  • 6. Cover both bowls and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.

To Serve

  • 7. In two glasses or jars, layer the chocolate oats first, followed by the coffee oats.
  • 8. Top with thick Greek yogurt mixed with a little vanilla extract, then finish with a dusting of cocoa powder.
  • 9. Chill briefly before serving (optional) and enjoy your tiramisu-inspired breakfast!

Notes

  • Coffee strength: Use a strong espresso shot for the most authentic tiramisu flavor. If you prefer a milder taste, opt for decaf or instant coffee.
  • Yogurt choice: A thick Greek yogurt works best for the creamy topping. For a dairy-free version, try coconut or almond-based yogurt.
  • Sweetness level: Adjust the maple syrup to your taste - tiramisu is usually lightly sweet, but you can add more if you prefer.
  • Oats texture: Rolled oats (old-fashioned) give the best creamy texture. Quick oats will be softer, while steel-cut oats need extra soaking time.
  • Make ahead: These overnight oats keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days, making them perfect for meal prep.
  • Serving idea: Sprinkle shaved dark chocolate or add a few coffee beans on top for an extra tiramisu touch.
