Dukan Tiramisu: A Treat That Delights Your Taste Buds Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 50 minutes Total time: 2 hours (including cooling) Servings: 12 Tiramisu, a classic Italian dessert, is loved by many for its creamy texture and intense coffee flavor. Although this dessert is often associated with high calories and less healthy ingredients, our Dukan Tiramisu recipe proves to be an easy-to-make alternative that adheres to the principles of the Dukan diet. So, let’s embark on this culinary journey together! A Brief History of Tiramisu Tiramisu has become a symbol of Italian desserts, created in the 1960s. Its name comes from the phrase “tira mi su,” which translates to “pick me up.” This reflects not only the energizing effect of coffee but also the pleasure this dish provides. Over the years, the recipe has evolved, and we aim to adapt it to be healthier without compromising on taste. Ingredients For a 26 cm diameter pan, you will need the following: Base: - 12 tablespoons skimmed milk powder - 4 tablespoons cornstarch - 6 tablespoons oat bran - 2 tablespoons 0.1% fat yogurt - 2 packets baking powder - 6 tablespoons 0.1% fat milk - 2 tablespoons instant coffee - 5 tablespoons solid sweetener - 8 eggs (separate yolks and whites) - 1 vial rum essence Cream: - 6 egg yolks - 850 ml milk - 4 tablespoons cornstarch - 7 tablespoons solid sweetener - 1 vial vanilla essence - 900 g 0.2% fat quark cheese - 14 g gelatin Syrup: - 200 ml brewed coffee, sweetened with 3-4 tablespoons solid sweetener - 1 teaspoon vanilla essence - 1 teaspoon rum essence Decoration: - Unsweetened cocoa powder - 1 chocolate bar (optional, for extra flavor) Preparation Steps Step 1: Prepare the Base 1. In a large bowl, combine the skimmed milk powder, cornstarch, oat bran, instant coffee, and baking powder. 2. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with yogurt, milk, sweetener, and rum essence until smooth. 3. Incorporate the dry mixture into the wet mixture and mix well for a few minutes. 4. Whip the egg whites until foamy, then carefully fold them into the mixture using a wooden spoon. 5. Divide the batter into two equal parts and pour the first part into a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at low-medium heat for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. 6. Repeat the process for the second layer. Step 2: Prepare the Cream 1. In a bowl, mix the egg yolks with cornstarch, vanilla essence, and 2-3 tablespoons of milk. 2. Add the remaining milk and sweetener, then mix well. 3. Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens. 4. Once the cream is ready, cover it with plastic wrap directly on the surface and let it cool. 5. Soak the gelatin in 100 ml of cold water and then melt it in a double boiler, allowing it to cool. 6. Blend the quark cheese with the cooled vanilla cream. Add the melted gelatin and mix well. Step 3: Assemble the Cake 1. Line the baking pan you used for the layers with plastic wrap. 2. Place the first layer, soak it with the prepared coffee syrup, then add half of the cream mixture. 3. Place the second layer, soak it, and finish with the remaining cream. 4. Refrigerate the cake for about 4 hours or ideally until the next day. Step 4: Decorate and Serve 1. Before serving, sprinkle with unsweetened cocoa powder and, if desired, grated chocolate on top. 2. Cut the cake into portions and enjoy it with a cup of coffee or a fragrant tea.
