STONE FRUIT + HONEY + SOFT CHEESE PLATE


  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: serves 2 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 57 pieces of stone fruit (apricots, peaches, nectarines, plums, etc. – use less if your fruit is large ) pitted, and sliced
  • 2 handfuls of cherries (if in season, otherwise substitute more stone fruit)
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone, goat cheese, ricotta, or other soft cheese (we used anthotiro)
  • 3 tbsp honey (we used Greek forest honey)
  • 1/3 cup almonds (we used blanched almonds, but skin on would be fine as would pistachios, walnuts, or pecans)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • flakey salt
  • fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat a small skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp of olive oil and almonds ( or nuts of your choice ) stirring often until lightly toasted, about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle nuts with flakey salt and pour into a small dish, reserve
  2. On a large plate or platter, arrange stone fruit slices & cherries around the cheese. Drizzle cheese generously with honey.
  3. Sprinkle toasted almonds all around the fruit & cheese and finish with a garnish of fresh torn mint leaves.

Notes

* recipe can easily be doubled, etc. if serving more than 2 people
* for a vegan & dairy free option, consider substituting an almond ricotta for the cheese and agave for the honey
