Ingredients You’ll Need
- 1 cup quick-cooking oats: These oats blend smoothly and soak up flavors well, but you could substitute rolled oats for a chewier texture.
- 3 oz. espresso: This is the star ingredient providing that authentic tiramisu flavor; if you don’t have espresso, strong brewed coffee works in a pinch.
- ¾ cup almond milk, plain, unsweetened: This dairy-free option adds creaminess without being too heavy. Feel free to use any milk of your choosing.
- ¾ cup 2% Greek yogurt, plain: Adds a rich, creamy texture and protein. You can swap this for a dairy-free yogurt if you prefer.
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup: For natural sweetness. Substituting with honey or agave syrup can also work.
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds: These not only add fiber but also help thicken the mixture. If you’re not a fan of chia, you could leave this out.
- Pinch of salt: Enhances the flavor and balances the sweetness.
- ¼ cup 2% Greek yogurt, plain: Save this for the topping to add creaminess when serving.
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup: This adds an additional layer of sweetness to the topping.
- Cocoa powder for topping: This adds that classic tiramisu touch; make sure to choose unsweetened cocoa for the best flavor.
- 1-2 teaspoons mini chocolate chips for topping: These give a delightful chocolatey crunch and are completely optional.
How to Make Tiramisu Blended Oats
- Blend the Ingredients: Place 1 cup quick-cooking oats, 3 oz. espresso, ¾ cup almond milk, ¾ cup 2% Greek yogurt, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and a pinch of salt into a blender. Blend everything until smooth and creamy.
- Transfer to Storage Containers: Pour the blended oats into two storage containers, distributing evenly. Set aside to thicken slightly.
- Prepare the Topping: In a small bowl, mix together ¼ cup plain 2% Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon maple syrup until well combined — this creates a sweet yogurt topping for your oats.
- Assemble and Serve: Top each cup of oats with the maple yogurt mixture, then sprinkle with cocoa powder and mini chocolate chips for that extra touch of sweetness.
Storing & Reheating
You can store the Tiramisu Blended Oats in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you’re planning to make them ahead, layer the oats and yogurt separately until just before serving. For freezing, you can keep them in the freezer for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and give them a quick stir before enjoying. Keep in mind that the texture might slightly change after freezing, so consider adding a splash of almond milk before enjoying to refresh the creaminess.
Chef’s Helpful Tips
