Tiramisu goes into summer mode, and honestly, it suits it perfectly! ;) In this fruity version, the roasted apricots add a tender, slightly tart touch, delicately scented with rosemary. With its creamy mascarpone, ladyfingers soaked in apricot syrup, and crunchy pistachios on top, every spoonful is fresh, sweet, and full of sunshine. This is the perfect dessert to make ahead for a summer meal, a family lunch, or an evening with friends. Original, indulgent, and wonderfully creamy, it’s a change from classic tiramisu while keeping the comforting quality we love!

FAQ ❓

How do you prepare roasted apricots for tiramisu?

Coat the apricots with olive oil, vanilla sugar, and fresh (or dried) rosemary. Roast them.
In an air fryer: at 190°C for about 10 minutes, on parchment paper.
In a skillet: sauté them for a few minutes until tender.
In the oven: at 180°C for about 10 to 15 minutes, on parchment paper.
You can replace them with peaches, flat peaches, or nectarines, or use a mix of orange-colored fruits ;-)
The tiramisu should rest in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours so the flavors can meld and the texture is just right.
You can replace the eggs with 20 cl heavy cream (30% fat).
I decorated it with whole roasted apricots and some cut into pieces, plus chopped pistachios, but you can also add apricot coulis for a smoother finish. You can blend and strain the roasted apricots to make a flavorful homemade coulis.
