Substitutions

• Rolled oats: Use quick oats for a softer texture. Avoid steel-cut oats.
• Chia seeds: Replace with ground flax seeds, or a few tablespoons of Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
• Milk: Use dairy milk, almond milk, oat milk, soy milk, or your favorite milk.
• Coffee: Use espresso, moka pot coffee, French press coffee, drip coffee, cold brew, or instant coffee dissolved in milk.
• Maple syrup: Replace with honey, agave, date syrup, or your preferred sweetener.
• Vanilla extract: Use almond extract for a different flavor.
• Greek yogurt: Substitute low-fat Greek yogurt, Skyr, mascarpone, ricotta, or cream cheese.
• Cocoa powder: Use unsweetened cacao powder.

Dietary Variations

• Vegan/Dairy-Free: Use plant-based milk and dairy-free yogurt.
• Gluten-Free: Use certified gluten-free oats.
• Nut-Free: Use dairy, oat, or soy milk instead of almond milk.
• High-Protein: Add vanilla protein powder and/or use Skyr.
• High-Fiber: Add ground flaxseed, extra chia seeds, or berries.

Tips

• Chill overnight: The texture gets creamier and the coffee flavor deepens.
• Use good coffee: Since it is the main flavor, use one you enjoy drinking.
• Adjust the strength: Add stronger coffee for a bolder tiramisu taste.
• Stir well: Mix thoroughly so the chia seeds do not clump.
• Use rolled oats: Avoid steel-cut oats for the best texture.
• Thin if needed: Stir in a splash of milk before serving.
• Store well: Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
