Ingredients
- 4 whole nectarines
- 60 grams pistachios
- 30 grams almond flour
- 45 milliliters honey
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 200 grams Greek yogurt (optional, for serving)
- 8 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2
Cut the nectarines in half and remove the pits. Scoop out a small amount of flesh from the center of each half to create a shallow space for the filling. Save the removed flesh in a small bowl.
Step 3
In a food processor, combine pistachios, almond flour, 1 tablespoon of honey, butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, the saved nectarine flesh, and a pinch of sea salt. Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse paste.
Step 4
Spoon the pistachio mixture evenly into the hollowed centers of the nectarine halves, pressing gently to pack the filling.
Step 5
Arrange the stuffed nectarines in the prepared baking dish, flesh side up. Drizzle the remaining honey over the tops of the nectarines.
Step 6
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the nectarines are tender and the filling is golden brown.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of Greek yogurt on the side, if desired, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
