Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup strawberries (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon erythritol
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cup erythritol
  • 4 eggs (separated)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons erythritol (ground)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups strawberries (sliced)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberry Base: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of chopped strawberries, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of erythritol, and 1/2 cup of water. Cook over medium heat for about 5–7 minutes until the strawberries soften and release their juices. Set it aside to cool.
  2. Make the Cake Layers: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, beat together the 1/2 cup of softened butter and 1/2 cup of erythritol until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the egg yolks one at a time, followed by 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition until smooth.
  4. Combine the dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of coconut flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1/4 cup of water.
  5. Whip the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the batter.
  6. Bake the layers: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth out the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Set aside to cool completely.
  7. Prepare the Whipped Cream: Beat 1 cup of whipping cream with 2 tablespoons of ground erythritol and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese.
  8. Assemble the Tiramisu: Slice the cooled cake layers into two equal square pieces. Place one layer at the bottom of the serving dish, pour half of the strawberry syrup over it, spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture, and top with half of the sliced strawberries.
  9. Layer up: Repeat the process with the second cake layer, topping it with the remaining strawberry syrup, cream, and strawberries.
  10. Chill and Serve: Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Notes

The longer it chills, the better the flavors meld together. Serve with a dusting of erythritol and a mint leaf for garnish.
