If anyone has a great recipe for raw tiramisu, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks,
Bruce

like the regular kind you get in a bakery or a raw kind? sorry if this question seems a little dim but I'm just not sure what you mean..

the raw type of course. If anyone knows how to make this dish with both a carob cream and a vanilla cream that'd be a plus. I just had some in Chicago that was served on a bed of crushed almonds, strawberries, and the two creams. It was awesome.

Thanks,
Bruce

Ok I'll bite...

While I have never made a raw tiramisu I have made plenty of "cooked" tiramisu in my life so I can take a guess at a couple things.

For the cream portion (typically made with mascarpone) I would use soaked cashews, vanilla, cinnamon, coconut butter or cacao butter (gentle softened but not melted) and a splash of coffee extract. I would blend this together till I got a heavy cream-like consistency. I recommend the cashews because they tend to have the creamiest consistency.

The lady fingers would be the most difficult to replicate as they have a sponge like consistency that would be hard to mimic in a dehydrator. If I was going to attempt it though I would use finely ground macadamia nuts, dates, cinnamon and more coffee extract.

The topping is easy enough as it is usually just a dusting of cinnamon. I like a good challenge and I may just attempt this and see how it turns out. I'll keep ya posted.

I would replace the coconut butter possibly with meat from young coconuts and use almond flour leftover from almond milk. basically just look at a raw almond cookie recipe and shape them like lady fingers.

although coconutchronicles' ideas may work better... I was just thinkin that's what I would do when I read her stuff...

Lisa did ya get my pm?

I prefer your addition of the young coconut meat. Yes I got your PM and I will respond shortly!

Coconutcream:

could you post the recipe from food without fire?

Maybe use almond pulp (from making almond milk) as the "sponge" part.

Cafe Gratitude has a nice Tiramisu, but I don't know how to make it.

that's what I could find after some serious late night searching... I think the second one looks richer and more decadent. Knock yourself out and see what you come up with.
