Tiramisu Overnight Oats

ByTanya

These creamy Vegan Tiramisu Overnight Oats are like a dessert but for breakfast! They have everything you love about the classic Italian dessert—creamy, rich, and full of coffee flavour.

A jar filled with creamy dessert layered with cocoa powder, possibly tiramisu or a mousse, sits on a wooden surface. A spoon rests inside the jar, and some cocoa powder and coffee beans are scattered nearby.

Ingredients

Seven ingredients for a recipe are arranged on a marble surface: rolled oats, cocoa powder, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, chia seeds, espresso, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Rolled Oats– Old-fashioned rolled oats are best for overnight oats—they soften nicely without becoming mushy. Avoid quick oats (too soft) or steel-cut oats (too chewy unless pre-cooked).
  • Chia Seeds– Chia seeds add thickness and a pudding-like texture while boosting omega-3 content!
  • Brewed Coffee– Espresso shots if you have an espresso machine, alternatively cooled brewed coffee also works.
  • Plant-Based Milk– Any unsweetened dairy-free milk works here—almond, oat or soy. Try my nut milk recipe here!
  • Maple Syrup-Maple syrup complements the coffee and cocoa flavours with a caramel-like sweetness. You can substitute with agave, date syrup, or your preferred liquid sweetener.
  • Vanilla Extract– Adds warmth and enhances both the oat base and the cream layer.
  • Coconut Yoghurt– Rich, creamy, and slightly tangy—coconut yogurt makes a great stand-in for the mascarpone layer in traditional tiramisu. Greek-style plant-based yoghurts also work well if you prefer something thicker. Any thick, non-dairy yogurt will work, but coconut yogurt adds that rich, creamy element reminiscent of mascarpone.
  • Cocoa Powder– A must-have tiramisu topping. Unsweetened cocoa powder dusted on top gives that classic bitter-sweet finish.
