Tiramisu is a gourmet Italian dessert, which is traditionally prepared with eggs, sugar, mascarpone, alcohol (often marsala or amaretto) and a biscuit lightly dipped in bitter coffee. The elements are superimposed in layers, and the whole thing is covered with coffee powder. This entremet can be made in a dish or in individual portions in verrines.
Are you looking for a “healthy” version of tiramisu? However, nothing prevents you from twisting this preparation by adding fruit or flavoring the cream with vanilla or even lemon zest. Besides, to replace mascarpone, heavy and caloric, it is possible to use yogurt, whipped cream, or even ricotta, mixed with a hint of liquid cream. As for the sugar, it is possible to substitute it with agave syrup or coconut sugar, with a strong sweetening power.
