I love making tiramisu and it is so easy to make. What I do not like about it is that I cannot give any to my son because of the raw eggs, brandy and coffee.
Since I think it is much healthier to give him sweets that I make at home, rather than bought, I had to come up with something to replace the classical tiramisu.
It goes like this:
- 20 pieces Savoiardi (lady fingers)
- a bowl of chopped strawberries (I don't have a precise quantity for this, but the more, the better)
- 500gr mascarpone
- 200gr vegetable liquid cream (spelt d'avoine in my case)
- 2 Tsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp agave syrup
- 1 mug good quality naturally
decaffeinated coffee
- vanilla
- Start with brewing the coffee, add some vanilla and let it cool. I don't add any sugar, as the lady fingers are sweet enough to my taste.
- Secondly, put in a bowl the mascarpone, the liquid cream, the sugar and the vanilla and mix well. When it looks quite compact, let it rest in the fridge until you prepare the rest of the cake.
- Chop the strawberries into small cubes and add the agave syrup if they are not really sweet. If they are naturally sweet, don't add anything. Set aside.
- Put the cooled coffee in a recipient that allows you to dip the lady fingers one by one. Don't let them stay too long or they get too juicy. Just drop them in and take them out. In a tray, arrange the moist lady fingers in a mosaic.
Add the strawberries
....and then the cream from the fridge.
Leave the entire thing in the fridge for a couple of hours or more.
Enjoy!
It does not taste much like the real deal, but it is still pretty yummy.
If you want it to be with winter fruit, you can make it with oranges and replace the vanilla with cinnamon.
Frutti -misu :) Poti insiropa cu sirop de fructe in loc de cafea. Merge si cu ananas sau cu piersici, poti face chiar un mix de fructe. Am vazut varianta asta prezentata de un italian si e perfecta pentru copii :)
