Nectarines and Raspberries with Ginger Crumbs

This is a nice and easy 'throw-together desert. It is based on a recipe in 'Delicious' magazine. Believe me it tastes much better than it looks!



To serve 4

2 fresh nectarines, cut into halves, stone removed
3 tbsp agave nectar
100 g gluten free ginger cake, broken into crumbs
200 g Greek style yogurt with honey
100 g fresh raspberries

Place the nectarine halves in an ovenproof dish, spoon over 2 tbsp agave nectar, place under a medium-hot grill for 15 minutes
Add a further 1 tbsp agave nectar and the ginger crumbs to the nectarines, spoon over the yogurt
Grill the nectarines until the yogurt starts to bubble
Place one nectarine per plate on four small plates, with some of the agave and yogurt sauce which has been created. Add some of the fresh raspberries

Imagine the weather is wonderful and eat a sunny desert :)

Oh yum. This looks divine. I have to find a gluten free ginger cake recipe - once I do, I will be making this for sure! Thanks for the recipe. ~Ellen

Yet another wonderful sounding creation Dianne. That's a dessert I can certainly enjoy. I am not sure where I would get the GF ginger cake here, but I am sure my wife can create one if I beg her to :)

I've just stumbled across your delightful blog. I was especially interested in your recent post about foods of Scotland, as I am collecting information about foods which are specific to various regions of the UK, and I have precious few entries from Scotland. Thanks!

I don't know what you're talking about, regarding this food tasting better than it looks, because my goodness, it looks delicious!

I don't know how to make ginger cake, but I wonder if I could make a much less homemade version of this tempting dessert with mi-del cookies' ginger snaps? You've given me a lot to think about, thats for sure....

Thanks!
