Summer Fruit Tiramisu (Fresh and Light Egg-free Recipe)
Summer Fruit Tiramisu is a delightful and refreshing Italian dessert, perfect for warm weather. This version is a lighter, eggless take on the traditional Italian Tiramisu.For this recipe, I start with a base of ladyfingers soaked in a zesty lemon syrup. Then, I layer them with a smooth mascarpone cream mixed with fluffy whipped cream. To add a burst of flavor and color, I incorporate plenty of fresh summer fruits.

Ingredients
- 200 g ladyfingers cookies - ~20-30 cookies
- 250 g mascarpone cheese - 1 cup
- 250 ml whipping cream - 1 cup
- 120 g granulated sugar - ½ cup
- 500 g Fruit - 1.1 pound of mixed seasonal fresh fruit
- 200 ml water - 1 cup
- 50 ml lemon juice - 4 tablespoons, or Limoncello
- 1 lemon - the peel of one organic lemon
Instructions
- Start by putting water, about 30 grams of sugar, and the peel of one lemon into a small saucepan. Bring this mixture to a boil and stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely, which should take around 3 minutes. Once done, remove the lemon peel.
- Then add some limoncello or lemon juice for extra flavor. Let the syrup cool down completely.
- While the syrup is cooling, whip the fresh cream using an electric mixer. Add about 50 grams of sugar to the cream as you whip it. Be gentle to avoid turning the cream into butter. Once done, put the whipped cream in the refrigerator to keep it cool.
- Take the cold mascarpone cheese from the refrigerator and mix it with the remaining 40 grams of sugar using the electric mixer on low speed. Blend until it's creamy. Then, gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until you get a creamy yet firm consistency. Place this mixture back in the refrigerator.
- Wash and dry the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Peel the peaches and kiwis, then cut all the fruits into small cubes.
- Pour the cooled lemon syrup into a large container. Dip the ladyfingers into the syrup, ensuring both sides are soaked. Arrange these soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of your chosen baking dish to form the base of the tiramisu.
- Spread an even layer of the mascarpone and cream mixture over the ladyfingers. Then, evenly distribute the mixed fruit on top of the cream layer.
- Add another layer of soaked ladyfingers on top of the fruit layer. Spread the remaining mascarpone and cream mixture over these ladyfingers.
- Finally, top with the remaining diced fruits. Let the summer fruit tiramisu chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy your delicious summer fruit tiramisu!
