Why You’ll Love These Tiramisu Overnight Oats:

  • A Healthy Twist on a Classic: Enjoy the classic flavors of tiramisu—coffee, cocoa, and vanilla—without the heavy calories or sugar found in the traditional dessert.
  • Quick and Easy: With only 10 minutes of prep time and no cooking required, these oats are perfect for busy mornings or meal prep for the week.
  • Protein-Packed: With the addition of protein powder, Greek yogurt, and almond milk, these oats will help you feel full and energized until your next meal.
  • Customizable to Your Taste: Whether you like it sweeter, more decadent, or with a little extra coffee flavor, this recipe is highly adaptable to suit your preferences.

Here are The Main Ingredients you will Need:

Step-by-Step Instructions:

In a container, combine all the ingredients for the overnight oats: coffee, almond milk, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, basil seeds, oats, sugar-free maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sweetener. Stir well to combine.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, to allow the oats to absorb the liquids and flavors.

In a separate bowl, prepare the top layer by mixing together Greek yogurt (or blended cottage cheese), sugar-free maple syrup, sweetener, vanilla protein powder, and cocoa powder.

Once the oats have set, spread the prepared top layer over the overnight oats.

Dust the top with an additional sprinkle of cocoa powder for garnish.

Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Notes and Modifications:

  • Cold brew or espresso adds the most robust flavor, but you can also use brewed coffee. If you prefer a less intense coffee flavor, you can reduce the amount of coffee used to your liking.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the oats with the wet ingredients before refrigerating. For a gluten-free option, ensure the oats are certified gluten-free.
  • Basil seeds provide a slightly different texture than chia seeds, but both are great options for adding fiber. If you prefer chia seeds, they can easily be swapped in, though keep in mind the macronutrient difference.
  • These overnight oats can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, making them an ideal prep-ahead breakfast or snack.

    1. This variation of overnight oats is so jam packed with flavour! We used a double shot of espresso for the coffee and have no regrets. To summarize, I was emotionally unprepared for how good this recipe was.
