Tiramisu


Yield: 2-4 servings

*Tiramisu must set in the fridge for at least 3 hours before serving.


Ingredients:

24 Lady Fingers

3 pasteurized Eggs (yolks and whites divided)

1 cup Almond Milk ricotta

2 tablespoons maple syrup

Freshly brewed espresso (1 cup)

Chopped cacao and cacao powder, for garnish

For the Lady Fingers – 

4 large eggs, separated

1cup almond flour

1 cup cassava flour

4 tablespoons flax meal

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt

1/2 cup coconut milk

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup maple syrup

1 egg, for egg wash


 

Directions:

To make the lady fingers –

In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks, almond flour, cassava flour, flax meal, baking powder, salt, coconut milk, maple syrup and water. The dough should be very thick and wet.

In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold into the almond flour mixture. Scoop the mixture into a pastry bag with large, round tip, or a plastic bag. Push mixture to the bottom, and if using a plastic bag, snip the bottom corner so there’s a 3/4 inch wide hole. Slowly push out about 5 lines of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with egg wash. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until barely golden brown.

Tiramisu time!

Brew espresso. Set aside and let it cool.

Whisk together the egg yolks until frothy (3-5 minutes). Add maple syrup and mascarpone, whisk together until a smooth custard consistency. In a separate bowl and ideally using a mixer, whisk together the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk-cheese mixture.

In a serving dish, add a third of a mixture.

Soak lady fingers in espresso and add atop mixture; top with a third of cocoa powder and chopped chocolate. Repeat with a second and third layer, until serving dish is full, ensuring final layer is your mixture topped with cocoa and chopped chocolate.

*Set in fridge for at least 3 hours before eating. Good for up to 3 days in the fridge.

Enjoy!!
