Ingredients

To make Tiramisu overnight oats with Greek yogurt you’ll need the following ingredients. You can find the specific quantities and steps in the recipe card below.

Oats: Old fashioned or traditional oats are best to hold their shape overnight. Quick oats are fine too but will result in a finer texture as they will absorb liquid more easily. Steel cut oats are not suitable for this recipe.
Chia seeds: One of my favorite superfoods and perfect for giving overnight oats their pudding like texture.
Maple syrup: This adds a little natural sweetness to the oatmeal and the yogurt layer. You can also use honey or your sweetener of choice.
Vanilla extract: Adds extra flavor to the final mixture. You can skip if you don’t have it, but I recommend using if you do!
Coffee: You’ll need some cooled brewed coffee, or espresso if you have an espresso machine.
Milk: I use whole dairy milk in this recipe, but feel free to use your preferred dairy or non-dairy milk.
Cocoa powder: Essential for a traditional tiramisu flavor and look! A good quality cocoa powder will give you the best flavor.
Greek Yogurt: A healthy breakfast alternative to mascarpone cheese used in traditional Tiramisu recipes. You can also use vanilla yogurt.

How To Make Tiramisu Overnight Oats

Here’s a quick overview of how to make healthy overnight oats with coffee. For the full recipe and ingredient list, scroll down to the printable recipe card.

You will need a mixing bowl and some individual overnight oats jars to get started.

Step 1: First you need to make the oatmeal mixture. In a bowl add the oats, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla, coffee and milk. Stir well to combine.

Step 2: Next you layer your jars with the oatmeal mix. Sprinkle a layer of cocoa in the bottom of each jar then divide half the oats mixture between your jars. Dust a second layer of cocoa into the centre of each jar then repeat with the remaining oats to fill each jar.

Cover or seal with lids and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 3: In the morning, mix the yogurt with the maple syrup and vanilla. Then divide the yogurt topping between each of the overnight oats jars. Add a final generous dusting of cocoa powder on the top of each jar and enjoy!

Recipe Tips For Success

Use traditional rolled oats for the best oatmeal texture. Quick oats break down more quickly and can make the overnight oats taste a little mushy. Rolled oats retain some of their structure, for a better tasting breakfast.
Don’t skip the chia: Chia seeds give this overnight oats recipe the thick, pudding like texture as well as providing an extra fibre and protein boost.
Dust the tops with cocoa just before serving as the cocoa will dissolve into the yogurt over time.
Leave to chill in the fridge overnight for the best tasting overnight oats.
