With this delicious tiramisu without egg, alcohol & caffeine can also access children and pregnant women.
Tiramisu is a great dessert to bring home. Unless you're like us around 30 and in a phase of life where someone is pregnant, breastfeeding 😉 and has many small children now and then. Then it needs a tiramisu without egg, alcohol and coffee. Such an alternative can taste dull - but it doesn't have to. Alcohol-free, caffeine-free tiramisu without egg can be really delicious!

Taste and Occasion
We sometimes think this alternative is even better than the traditional one. Plus, you don't have to worry about any salmonella with egg-free tiramisu. And you can enjoy your tiramisu in hot summer, during pregnancy and breastfeeding just as easily as by little gourmets. It is not a special children's recipe for tiramisu (in fact, I have omitted or replaced all ingredients that are not good for the little ones); but if you take juice or cocoa instead of the coffee, the dessert even gets a real children's tiramisu note. Perfect for little and big sweets-lovers: creamy, delicate and slightly chocolaty!
Ingredients
In my recipe, you make the tiramisu without egg and alcohol with mascarpone and cream. Since the egg yolk is missing, the cream is not as "yellowish" as standard. Before layering, I drizzle the ladyfingers with cereal coffee (alternatively cocoa or orange juice). In the tiramisu without alcohol, I add a drop of bitter almond oil instead of the amaretto. For us, the best quick tiramisu without eggs!
How to make the Tiramisu without Egg, Alcohol & Caffeine
Let's begin with this easy recipe: Prepare the cereal coffee and let it cool down. If you like amaretto flavor, add 1-2 drops of bitter almond oil. Line the baking dish or baking pan (e.g. a 8 in/ 20 cm loaf pan) with cling film. If the tiramisu is to be served directly in the glass or mold, you can save the foil.
Now, mix the mascarpone with the sifted powdered sugar until smooth. Whip the cream with the cream stiffener until stiff. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cream with a pastry scraper or whisk. Spread a layer of spoon cookies on the bottom of the mold. Using a tablespoon, drizzle half of the cereal coffee over the top. Then, spread half of the cream on the sponge cakes and smooth it down. Then spread a second layer of cookies on top of the cream. Drizzle this with the rest of the coffee.
In the end, spread the remaining cream on the second sponge layer. Refrigerate tiramisu for about 4 h; alternatively overnight. Dust with sifted cocoa powder before serving.
