FAQ – Frequently asked questions

If you still have any doubt regarding this oatmeal recipe, make sure you read the FAQ section. In this section you are going to learn all you need to know about this delicious oatmeal bowl.

  • Rolled oats. This recipe uses old fashioned rolled oats but as an alternative you can prepare this tiramisu oatmeal with quick cook oats or also with a mix of rolled oats and oat flour. 
  • Sweetener of choice. You can decide to make this oatmeal with or without sweetener depending on your preferences. I personally never sweeten my oats because I find that adding part milk and part water is more than enough. But if you have the sweet tooth, you should add one tablespoon of your favorite sweetener to this recipe. My recommendations for you are maple syrup, date syrup, agave syrup, honey, coconut sugar or erythritol and xylitol for a calorie-free alternative. As an option you can also utilize stevia, but keep in mind that you will need less than one tablespoon because stevia is sweetener. 
  • Coffee. This recipe uses instant coffee powder but as an alternative you can prepare this eggless tiramisu for one with one espresso coffee shot. All you will need to do is reducing the quantity of liquid to 200 ml (7/8 cup) from of 240 ml (1 cup). 
  • Milk or water. You can make these tiramisu oats using either your favorite milk (nondairy, dairy) or water or again a blend of both. I personally like making my oats with half (soy) milk and half water.
  • Yogurt of choice. For this recipe I like using plain soy yogurt but you can replace with any yogurt you prefer. However, my recommendation is to use a smooth yogurt like traditional yogurt, soy yogurt, almond yogurt or cashew yogurt. Also Greek yogurt or Skyr will work but you may need to stir it up with some milk to make it smoother.

How to make protein tiramisu oatmeal

This oatmeal recipe is already quite rich in protein because it comes with a yogurt topping, but you can also make it even higher in protein. All you need to do is going to be using protein powder to replace part of the oats. Both vegan and Whey protein powder will work, but the recipe procedures will change slightly. Read further to learn the best practices for making protein powder tiramisu oatmeal.

  • Vegan protein powder – you can decide to replace 20 grams (1/4 cup) of the oats with your favorite vegan protein powder (unflavored, coffee or vanilla flavored) or add 1 scoop protein powder to the 50 grams (1/2 cup) oats before cooking. However, only if required you will need to add more milk (up to 60 ml or 1/4 cup) of choice because vegan protein powders absorb more liquid.
  • Whey protein powder – to make this tiramisu oatmeal with Whey protein powder, first cook the oats with all ingredients apart Whey protein as the recipe describes. When the oatmeal has reached the desired consistency, turn the heat off and stir 1 scoop Whey protein powder into your oatmeal. Finally, pour into the oats more milk to consistency and give it a good stir until you get a creamy texture.
