Serves: 2-3
 
Ingredients
  • 2-3 Dapple Dandy pluots (or any other stone fruit; mine were large)
  • 3 tablespoons turbinado sugar
  • small amount of butter to grease pan
  • 4 ounces mascarpone cheese
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • sprig of fresh thyme
Instructions
  1. Slice each pluot in half and remove pit carefully. Dip each half, cutside, into turbinado sugar.
  2. Using non-stick pan, lightly grease with butter and place on medium flame (or grill).
  3. Cook pluots for about 4 minutes to brown and caramelize sugar, checking each minute to prevent burning the sugar. Remove pluots from pan and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Meanwhile, mix the mascarpone cheese with the honey.
  5. Top each pluot with sweetened marcaspone and sprinkle each with few leaves from the thyme sprig.
  6. Enjoy while warm with a chilled citrusy dessert wine (or cough syrup, if your a summer sickie, like me).
