Amaretti Roasted Nectarines
Introduction from Rukmini Iyer
This simple, elegant Italian dessert, suggested by this book’s equally elegant art director and designer, Pene, is best made with perfectly ripe nectarines. If you have a sweet tooth, add a little sugar before stuffing them with the amaretti biscuits – but they’re just as lovely without.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat your oven to 160°c fan/180°c/ gas 4. Place the halved nectarines in a roasting tin, cut side up. Sprinkle with the dark brown sugar, if using, then stuff each cavity with the crumbed amaretti biscuits.
Transfer the roasting tin to the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, until the nectarines are soft and the tops of the amaretti biscuits are crunchy.
Serve immediately, with the mascarpone alongside.
