What not to add in overnight oats?

Avoid quick oats (they get mushy), steel-cut oats (they don’t soften enough), citrus flavors (which clash with espresso), and high-water fruits like watermelon or strawberries that can make the oats watery. Stick to ingredients that enhance the creamy, coffee-rich flavor.

How do you make overnight oats tiramisu protein?

Add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder to the oat base, use high-protein Greek yogurt, or blend in smooth cottage cheese as a mascarpone alternative. These swaps make the oats more satisfying while keeping that indulgent texture.

Are overnight oats actually healthy?

Yes! Overnight oats are rich in fiber, vitamins, and complex carbs. When made with whole ingredients like rolled oats, yogurt, and minimal sugar, they support digestion and energy levels. This tiramisu version offers a nutritious twist on a classic dessert.

How many calories are in tiramisu overnight oats?

Depending on ingredients, one serving ranges from 250–350 calories. Using Greek yogurt and dark chocolate keeps it balanced. For an exact count, use a calorie tracker based on your milk, sweetener, and toppings.
