This Tiramisu Overnight Oats recipe is a delightful twist on the classic Italian dessert, transformed into a healthy, protein-packed breakfast. Combining the rich flavors of cold brew coffee, vanilla protein powder, and Greek yogurt, this no-cook oats dish is layered with a creamy yogurt mascarpone substitute and dusted with cocoa powder. Perfect for busy mornings or a make-ahead snack, it soaks overnight to develop a satisfying, creamy texture.

Ingredients

Oats Mixture

  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 scoop (25-30g) vanilla protein powder (I used Truvani)
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • ½ cup cold brew coffee (or chilled brewed coffee)
  • ½ Tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt

Mascarpone Layer

  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Garnish

  • Cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Combine: In a jar or bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, cold brew coffee, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly mixed.
  2. Refrigerate: Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator to soak overnight or for at least 4 hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a creamy consistency.
  3. Prepare Mascarpone Layer: When ready to serve, mix together the plain Greek yogurt and 1 teaspoon of maple syrup in a small bowl until smooth and creamy to mimic the mascarpone element of tiramisu.
  4. Serve: Stir the soaked oats mixture; if it seems too thick, add a splash of your preferred milk to loosen it. Layer the oats in a serving glass or bowl, then spread or dollop the yogurt 'mascarpone' layer on top. Dust the surface generously with cocoa powder. Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, coffee-infused flavor reminiscent of tiramisu.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup used to suit your preference.
  • Using cold brew coffee enhances the coffee flavor without making the oats too watery.
  • The Greek yogurt provides a creamy texture and protein boost, replicating traditional mascarpone cheese in a lighter way.
  • Feel free to swap almond milk for any milk of your choice, including dairy or other plant-based options.
  • This recipe is best prepared the night before for optimal texture and flavor.
  • Adding a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings on top can provide an extra indulgent touch.
