Tips & Variations

• For a non-alcoholic version, substitute peach schnapps with peach juice or syrup to maintain flavor without the alcohol.
• Use fresh peaches when in season for a lighter, fresher taste.
• Try adding a handful of chopped fresh mint leaves for a hint of herbal freshness.
• To add extra crunch, sprinkle toasted breadcrumbs or crushed amaretti biscuits between layers.

Storage

Store the tiramisu covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. It’s best enjoyed within this timeframe for optimal texture. When ready to serve, allow it to sit for a few minutes at room temperature for easier spooning, but avoid leaving it out too long to maintain freshness.

Instructions

1. Prepare the syrup: Drain the peach slices over a bowl to collect the syrup. Stir the peach schnapps into the syrup to create a flavorful boozy liquid.
2. Whip the cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the double cream with the vanilla extract and icing sugar until soft peaks form, providing a light and fluffy texture for the layers.
3. Layer the dessert: Arrange half of the drained peach slices in a single layer at the bottom of a serving dish. Lightly brush the brioche fingers with the peach schnapps syrup—avoid dunking to prevent sogginess—and place them over the peaches in a single layer.
4. Add cream and repeat: Spread half of the whipped cream over the brioche layer. Repeat the layering with the remaining peach slices, sour cream, and brioche fingers, finishing with a final layer of whipped cream on top.
5. Chill: Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly. It can be kept chilled for up to 24 hours.
6. Garnish and serve: Before serving, sprinkle the lime zest and toasted flaked almonds over the top for added freshness and crunch.

Notes

• Be careful not to soak the brioche fingers; brushing them with syrup prevents them from becoming soggy while retaining flavor.
• This dessert can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance, making it ideal for entertaining.
• To toast almonds, spread them on a baking tray and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
• If peach schnapps is unavailable, substitute with a peach-flavored liqueur or a splash of peach juice for a non-alcoholic version.
