Strawberry Tiramisu

A quick recipe for a light gluten free Italian dessert with strawberries. Ladyfinger pastries (savoiardi) are dipped in self-made strawberry syrup and no coffee is used in this recipe.

Ingredients for Tiramisu:

600 gr fresh strawberries

500 gr of mascarpone

300 gr of gluten free ladyfinger pastries (savoiardi)

400 gr of cold crème fraîche 30%

1 spoon of sugar powder

Ingredients for strawberry sirup:

200 ml water

150gr strawberries

2 spoons of brown sugar

1/2 juice of lime (optional)

First, wash and cut the strawberries for a syrup into slices. Add them into water and sugar and boil it for 5 minutes. Let the syrup get cool.

Whip cold crème fraîche mixed with sugar powder and mascarpone cheese till it becomes thick & creamy.

Cut ladyfinger pastries according to your form cake, dip them in the cold strawberry syrup for a second (any longer would make them melt and break) and place them in the cake form. I use Schär gluten free savoiardi. For this tiramisu I needed 1,5 boxes of Schär savoiardi.

On the layer of dipped ladyfinger pastries put a layer of sliced strawberries and a layer of tiramisu cream. Then again one layer of ladyfinger pastries and strawberries and finish with a tiramisu cream.

Put tiramisu in the fridge for at least 3-4 hours or over night (even better).

Decorate tiramisu with sliced strawberries just shortly before serving.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Celeste
