A quick and easy summer dessert featuring juicy nectarines roasted with honey and cinnamon, served with creamy vanilla-infused Greek yogurt. This light and fresh treat is perfect for busy nights or a simple indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium fresh nectarines, ripe but firm
  • 2 tablespoons honey (preferably raw or wildflower)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Toasted nuts or granola (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to fully heat.
  2. Rinse and dry nectarines. Cut each in half and remove the pit. Quarter halves if large.
  3. Arrange nectarines cut side up in a single layer in a baking dish.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over nectarines and sprinkle cinnamon evenly.
  5. Coat nectarines with honey using a spoon or brush.
  6. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the nectarines.
  7. Roast for 15-20 minutes until edges caramelize but fruit holds shape.
  8. While roasting, whisk Greek yogurt with vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
  9. Remove nectarines from oven and let cool slightly.
  10. Serve nectarines topped with the creamy vanilla yogurt and optional toasted nuts or granola.

Notes

If honey darkens too quickly, tent the dish loosely with foil to prevent burning. Avoid over-roasting to prevent mushy texture. Use raw or unfiltered honey for best flavor. Vanilla in yogurt enhances taste. Lemon juice balances sweetness. Can substitute peaches or plums for nectarines. For dairy-free, use coconut or almond yogurt.
