Description
Tiramisu Overnight Oats are a healthy and delicious twist on the classic Italian dessert. This no-cook, make-ahead breakfast is infused with coffee, cocoa, and a creamy texture, mimicking tiramisu in a nutritious form.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for vegan option)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp brewed coffee, cooled (or espresso)
1 tbsp cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
Shaved chocolate or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Combine the Ingredients: In a mason jar or airtight container, mix together the rolled oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, brewed coffee, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until everything is combined.
- Refrigerate: Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the oats to soak and the chia seeds to thicken the mixture.
- Garnish and Serve: The next morning, give the oats a good stir. If desired, top the oats with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or shaved chocolate for extra flavor and texture.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately, or store the oats in the fridge for up to 3 days for a convenient make-ahead breakfast.
Notes
- For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and almond milk.
- If you prefer a less sweet breakfast, reduce or omit the maple syrup.
- For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg, or switch cocoa powder with instant coffee for more coffee flavor.
- Layer with whipped coconut cream or mascarpone (if not vegan) for a richer taste.
