These peach tiramisu overnight oats combine creamy vanilla protein oats, fresh diced peaches, and a smooth espresso cottage cheese layer for a fun twist on a classic dessert. A graham cracker crumble adds a little sweetness and texture, while ground flax helps create a thicker, satisfying oat base. With layers of fruity peaches and coffee-flavored creaminess, this recipe is a delicious way to enjoy a dessert-inspired breakfast.

Sam's Kitchen Favorites

  • For this recipe, I used these 18-ounce overnight oat jars with lids.
  • I love these silicone mixing spoons. No more scraping the bowl, and the food doesn't stick to them!
  • My go-to angled liquid measuring cup . After multiple runs through the dishwasher, the numbers have not worn off.
  • For permanently engraved measurements, these measuring cups are fantastic!
  • For a more professional yet affordable mixing bowl, these stackable bowls with measurements marks work perfectly.
  • Food Processor. A kitchen essential that makes things like crushing graham crackers into fine crumbs so easy. I also use it for chopping, blending, and making all kinds of recipes.
  • Acacia Wood Cutting Board. I use this board in many of my recipe photos to display my overnight oats. I love the warm wood finish because it creates a simple, natural background that helps the jars and layers of oats stand out. It’s also reversible and can be used as a cutting board, charcuterie board, or serving board, making it a versatile piece to have in your kitchen.

Helpful Tips

  • Customize the layer arrangement. Feel free to arrange the different layers however you'd like. I recommend splitting the oat layer into two separate layers.
  • Use cold coffee. Adding ¼ cup of cold coffee to the oats brings out the tiramisu flavor without making the mixture too warm before refrigerating.
  • Blend until smooth. Use a food processor to blend the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and espresso powder for a creamy layer without the cottage cheese texture.
  • To make these oats dairy free: Omit the yogurt or use Silk yogurt instead.
  • If omitting yogurt: I like to add a mashed banana to maintain a creamy texture.
  • What types of oats are best? I prefer rolled oats, but quick oats may be used as well for a softer consistency. Avoid using steel-cut oats, they will remain firm and chewy without cooking.

Why You'll Love This Recipe

  • Unique flavor combination. Sweet peaches and subtle espresso create a fun twist on traditional tiramisu.
  • Creamy texture. Blended cottage cheese and Greek yogurt make a smooth, coffee-flavored layer that pairs perfectly with the vanilla oats.
  • Satisfying breakfast. Vanilla protein powder, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and ground flax help make these oats a filling way to start your day.
  • Delicious layers. Graham cracker crumble adds a little crunch and sweetness between the creamy oats and peach flavors.
  • Easy to prepare. Simply mix your oat ingredients, blend the espresso cream, layer everything in a jar, and refrigerate overnight.
