Ingredients

Overnight oats

1 cup rolled oats
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 ½ cups soy milk
½ tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp matcha powder

Protein cream layer

1 cup soy yogurt plain or vanilla-flavored
2 scoops protein powder see notes

Toppings

12 fresh strawberries
1 tbsp pistachios roughly chopped
matcha powder extra, for dusting

Instructions

Mix the overnight oats: In a bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, soy milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Sift the matcha powder into the mixture to avoid clumps, then stir well until fully incorporated.
Refrigerate overnight: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until the oats have absorbed the liquid and thickened.
Make the protein cream: In a separate bowl, mix the soy yogurt and protein powder until smooth and creamy.
Prepare the strawberries: Chop the strawberries, add them to the bottom of your glasses or jars, and muddle slightly, or mash with a fork.
Layer the tiramisu: Divide the matcha overnight oats and protein cream evenly among three glasses or jars, alternating layers: strawberries, oats, protein cream, oats, protein cream.
Finish with toppings: When ready to eat, dust with extra matcha powder, sprinkle with chopped pistachios, and enjoy!

Notes

Protein powder: Make sure to use a protein powder you love the taste of. If your protein powder is chalky or you are not a fan of the flavor, it will not taste better once mixed with the yogurt. I used Happy Way vegan protein and it works so well in this kind of recipe. If you want to skip the protein powder, that is totally fine. Just use vanilla yogurt or plain yogurt, and add a dash more vanilla extract.

Storage: These keep well in the fridge for up to 2 days with the strawberries, or up to 4 days without the fruit. You can add them fresh on the day, so they are great for meal prep.

Sift the matcha: Matcha clumps easily when mixed into liquid. Always sift it through a fine mesh strainer for a smooth result.
