Description
This Vegan Tiramisu Oatmeal is the definition of eating dessert for breakfast! It is a vegan twist of the traditional tiramisu, with a rich creamy layer made of silken tofu, flavorful oatmeal and dusted with cacao powder on top.

- Combine oats, chia seeds, plant milk, coffee and maple syrup in a pot or a bowl.

Notes
I like to triple the recipe for the cream as it was easier to blend a larger amount of ingredients. You can store the leftover cream in the fridge if needed.
