Step 1: Add the rolled oats, milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla, espresso (or coffee), cinnamon, salt, and almond butter, if using, to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.

Step 4: Divide half of the oat mixture between two 8-ounce mason jars.

Step 5: Spoon the yogurt mixture evenly over the oat layer.

Tips & Tricks

Blending the oats creates an incredibly smooth, pudding-like texture.

Allowing the oat mixture to rest before layering helps it thicken for the best consistency.

Espresso gives these oats their classic tiramisu flavor, but strong brewed coffee works just as well.

For the richest flavor, prepare the jars the night before so everything has time to meld together.

Variations

Top with fresh berries for a bright summer twist.

Sprinkle chopped dark chocolate over the cocoa powder for an extra treat.

Swap the almond butter for cashew butter or leave it out entirely.

Use your favorite dairy or plant-based milk to suit your family’s preferences.

Storage & Leftovers

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Dust with cocoa powder just before serving for the freshest flavor and presentation.

These overnight oats are meant to be enjoyed cold, making them perfect for meal prepping several breakfasts at once.

One of my favorite ways to make busy mornings feel a little more peaceful is by preparing breakfast the night before. Having something wholesome, filling, and ready to grab means one less thing to think about as the day begins. These blended tiramisu overnight oats are a simple reminder that caring for your family doesn’t always have to be complicated—sometimes it’s as easy as opening the refrigerator to a homemade breakfast that’s ready to enjoy.
