Make this delicious coffee bavarois with our Yirgacheffe coffee. Bavarois is a spongy pudding, made with gelatine and egg. A beautiful and nice dessert! The Yirgacheffe is an unwashed coffee, with a part of the pulp still attached to the bean while drying. This gives the coffee a vigorous, fruity character. The Yirgacheffe belongs to the mixed Heirloom variety. The coffee bavarois is not too sweet and has a mild coffee flavour. If you like it to be sweeter, you can try using more sugar in the whipped cream. Without further ado, this is how you can make coffee bavarois with Yirgacheffe yourself! A special thanks to culinea.nl for the recipe.

How to make Coffee Bavarois?
Step 1: Place the gelatin leaves in a bowl with cold water. Let them sit until soft and moist, then take them out and firmly squeeze them. Place them on a platter with a splash of coffee and heat for 15 seconds in the microwave, until the gelatin leaves are melted into the coffee.
Step 2: Put the rest of the coffee in a bowl and mix with gelatin through it with a whisk. Place the mixture in the fridge. Check up on the mixture once in a while.
Step 3: Beat the whipped cream and add sugar. Whisk until stiff. Mix the egg with the whipped cream and place in back into the fridge.
Step 4: If the coffee is starting to become a thick liquid substance than mix it through the whipped cream with a spatula.
Step 5: Before serving you can decorate the cup by adding mocha powder and a coffee bean on top of the Bavarois.
Enjoy!
