Vegan Tiramisu

For Years I tried to find vegan “Lady fingers” to make a vegan Tiramisu until I finally realized that rusk just works as well and I`m very glad to finally share this recipe with you!
Since this is a vegan version of the original it comes 100% cholesterol free so it also might help some of our non vegan friends that need to keep an eye on the cholesterol intake. I personally made this recipe alcohol free, so it is great for kids and “non drinkers” too! But it is absolutely up to you to add a little bit extra Amaretto, so it comes even closer to a traditional Tiramisu.
There are already a few vegan recipes for Tiramisu out there, but they mostly use silken tofu which creeps a lot of people out and makes the texture very weird, so we are using vegan mascarpone. If you can’t find that at your supermarket, vegan Greek yoghurt or something similar will work as well.
So have a lot of fun making this recipe. I hope you will enjoy it!

Yields12 Servings
 300 g Vegan Rusk
 3 cups Vegan Mascapone
 1 ½ cups Vegan Whipping Cream
 6 tbsp Icing Sugar
 ¼ cup Amaretto Sirup (if desired also add 1/4 Cup Amaretto, but see notes)
 ½ cup Espresso
 1 tsp Lemon Zest
1

Pour cooled whipping cream into a bowl and whip it with an electric mixer until it is completely stiff.
Add the vegan mascapone, icing sugar and lemon zest and mix everything again until it's well combined.

2

In a separate bowl mix together the Espresso with the amaretto syrup.

*You also could add amaretto with alcohol too, but since we are using rusk instead of traditionally lady fingers it is necessary to add some kind of sweetener instead of just replacing the syrup with traditional amaretto.

3

Add the first layer of rusk into a 9×13 inch baking dish and sprinkle the espresso and amaretto mixture on top of it until every bit of rusk is completely soaked.
Then add half of the mascapone mixture on top.

4

Repeat by first adding another layer of rusk, then espresso/amaretto and finally the rest of the mascapone mixture.
Then let it sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours until serving.

5

Right before serving sift the kakao powder above the last layer of mascapone and finally enjoy.
