What Makes this Gluten Free Tiramisu Recipe Authentically Italian?
While this recipe embraces modern dietary needs, it still pages homage to its Italian heritage.
The authentic Italian flavour comes from using premium mascarpone cheese and rich, freshly brewed coffee - both hallmarks of traditional tiramisu.
By artfully balancing the light, airy texture of whipped eggs with the deep notes of espresso, this sweet dish captures the soul of classic Italian desserts.
Even the switch to gluten-free tiramisu ingredients, like the Schar Savoriardi biscuits, is a thoughtful nod to the more traditional ladyfingers. Every bite remains true to the original spirit of this Italian sweet treat, whilst catering to particular dietary lifestyles.
Because after all, gluten-free or not, la vita è troppo breve per dire no al tiramisù - Life is too short to say no to tiramisu!
Ingredients
To make this gluten-free tiramisu, you’ll need:
- 1 packet of Schar Savoiardi Biscuits (200g)
- 200g mascarpone cheese
- 3 egg yolks
- 3 egg whites
- 4 tbsp Chef's Choice Coconut Sugar
- 250mL coffee (instant or espresso, cooled)
- 1 tbsp Chef's Choice Cacao Powder
How to Make Gluten-Free Tiramisu
Step 1: Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture
In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with the Chef’s Choice Coconut Sugar until fully combined. Add the mascarpone cheese and mix until smooth.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the mascarpone mixture. This step ensures that your Gluten Free Tiramisu dessert stays light and airy.
Step 2: Soak the Biscuits
Prepare your coffee (instant or espresso), ensuring it’s fully cooled. Dip the Schar Savoiardi biscuits into the coffee, making sure they’re well-soaked but not soggy. Set them aside on a plate.
Step 3: Assemble the Tiramisu
Layer half of the soaked Savoiardi biscuits in a flat glass or ceramic dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the biscuits. Repeat with another layer of biscuits, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.
Step 4: Add the Finishing Touches
Using a sifter, sprinkle Chef’s Choice Cacao Powder evenly over the top for that final, irresistible chocolate hint.
Step 5: Chill & Serve
Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (overnight is even better!). When ready, serve your Gluten Free Tiramisu cold and enjoy every decadent bite.
Tips for the Best Gluten-Free Tiramisu
✔ Use high-quality coffee – The stronger, the better! Espresso gives the best flavour.
✔ Let it chill long enough – This step is key for the flavours to meld and the perfect texture to form, making the perfect Gluten Free Tiramisu.
✔ Fold the egg whites gently – This keeps the mascarpone mixture light and airy.
✔ Adjust the sweetness – Personalise your dessert by adding an extra tablespoon of Chef’s Choice Coconut Sugar if you prefer a sweeter finish.
