Recipe - Lemon tiramisu with peach
This, my friends, is such a delicious dessert!
So, I love the looks of tiramisu. I really do. My big problem with this beautiful dessert is this one little thing: coffee.
I don't like coffee. In fact, I hate the taste. I don't like it in any kind of food. If that fancy little piece of chocolate taste like coffee, I'll either spit it out, or hold my nose while trying to chew and swallow as fast as possible. You might say "It's an acquired taste.", well that, my friends, simply means it's yuck. If I have to learn to like something, it is not worth the effort.
Sadly, this means I can't enjoy a tiramisu. I like everything else in there, but it just doesn't work for me. I've made a couple of differently flavored tiramisu's in the past, but quite frankly, I forgot the recipes and didn't write them down in time. Either that, or they weren't up to my standards of a good dessert. This one though, it's a keeper, so I'm writing it down here to not forget about it.
I saw this in a cooking magazine from one of our grocery stores and figured I'll try it. I didn't use the exact ingredients they asked for though, so here's my own version:
Lemon tiramisu with peach
Ingredients
- 250g Skyr (Very thick yoghurt. Alternatively, use mascarpone.)
- 3 Tbsp lemoncurd
- 8 Ladyfingers
- 1 Can of peaches ( ~250g)
- Shavings of white chocolate (For decoration, optional.)
- 4 Jars for serving
Directions
- In a bowl, mix the Skyr and lemoncurd.
- Drain the peaches, put them in the blender, and blend them to a peach puree.
- Break the ladyfingers in half and divide them over the 4 jars.
- Divide the peach puree over the 4 jars and layer it on top of the ladyfingers.
- Divide the Skyr and lemoncurd blend and spead it over the peach puree.
- Top it all off with the white chocolate shavings.
- Set in the fridge for about an hour before serving (up until a day or two max).
Enjoy!
P.S.: The original recipe told me to use the peach juice from the can and let the ladyfingers soak in it. With the peach puree though, that's really unnecessary, because the puree is already wet enough to soak and soften the ladyfingers on its own.

Tiramisu is my favorite cake. This seems very tasty
Thank you very much! I love the idea of tiramisu and like it, as long as it's a version without coffee :-)
Thank you too! You have very good tastes
that sounds good!
Oh my gosh, it is so good :D
Years ago before being married I had a room mate who did not like coffee in fact she could not stand the way it smelled. I love coffee and love the way it smells. You are the first person since then I have heard this from.
Chocolate to me doesn't taste like coffee.. I like chocolate too.
The only flavor I can truly live without is licorice.
Tiramisu is wonderful..but this recipe looks wonderful so I could switch.
Oh gosh, I know how she feels! I don't like the smell either. Most people do seem to like it though. In fact, up until recently, it was basically the standard drink you would offer someone. Atleast in the workplace. I've only had that happen to me once, luckily. Other than that moment, tea was an acceptable alternative.
Regular chocolate doesn't taste like coffee (luckily!). There are some chocolates that do though. Like when you have a box of different flavours. That's torture to me, because I don't know before hand if the one I grab is the coffee one! I try to smell them though, which usually gives it away...
Aah licorice! It's quite common here in the Netherlands and actually, I've got three different kinds in my home right now! Normally I don't have it though. I don't mind it, but there's not a lot of flavours I really enjoy...
Why not eat both! One for today, the other for tomorrow ;-)
I do like red licorice ..that rubbery kind ... LOL
Thanks for the recipe! It looks delicious.
Thank you! I'm happy to hear that :-)
This is very difficult for me: on the one hand, tiramisu without coffee is blasphemy...BUT on the other hand I love lemon flavored desserts, not to mention it looks delicious. I think I'll try this with mascarpone though, as I don't think the yoghurt available here would be thick enough!
Aww I know what you mean and to be fair, it doesn't look as awesome as the regular tiramisu does (I didn't try very hard either). It is very yummy though, so we could always give it a different name! ;-)
Oh, it looks good alright... I could totally eat that!!!
