Preparation

Preheat oven to 180C.

Cut nectarines into halves, then quarters, removing and discarding stones. Place nectarine quarters (skin side down) on a shallow baking tray and sprinkle with caster sugar. Roast in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until softened and slightly brown.

Allow to cool. Remove skins and dice into 1cm chunks, set aside until needed.

Place cream cheese and butter into a mixing bowl, add sugar and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy. Add yoghurt, cinnamon, eggs and flour and beat again until smooth and well combined.

Using a wooden spoon stir through nectarines and pecans until well distributed. Spoon into a greased 23cm spring form cake tin. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Hot Tips

Cooking with coconut milk or cream

It's better not to bring coconut milk or cream back to the boil after adding it to a dish as it will curdle.

Snake beans

Also known as Chinese long beans, these dark green beans can be up to 1 metre in length and are usually sold in bunches. They do not need stringing prior to use and are mostly chopped and added to stir-fries.
