SPICED BAKED STONE FRUITS

By baking stoned fruit you get a more direct, dry heat which adds a more intense flavour.  I have added a little spice but you could add other spices such as cardamom, ginger or even throw in a sprig of fresh rosemary or thyme to liven things up.

They are delicious served warm as a quick dessert and if there are any leftovers they team up beautifully with your morning cereals.

Serves 4

Ingredients

4 plums

4 apricots

2 peaches

4 Tbsp orange juice

½ tsp cinnamon

50g of butter, diced

1 Tbsp honey

Cut the fruit in half and remove the stones. Place the fruit skin side down in an ovenproof dish and drizzle with the orange juice

Sprinkle the cinnamon, butter and sugar on top and bake in the oven for 10 minutes 

Remove fruit from the oven and baste with the juices in the dish.
