Spiced plums with hazelnut yoghurt

Honey-laced yoghurt, nutty roasted hazelnuts and grilled plums come together in this quick and easy summer dessert. Grilling plums gives them a caramlised edge, and could sub these for other stone fruit like peaches or nectarines.

  • difficulty Easy level

Ingredients

  • 100 g hazelnuts, roasted, peeled and chopped
  • 400 g Greek-style yoghurt
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soft brown sugar
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 500 g firm ripe plums

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven grill to the hottest setting. Reserve 4 tablespoons hazelnuts and mix the remaining into the yoghurt. Gently stir in the honey, cover and refrigerate while preparing the plums.
  2. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Halve and stone the plums, cutting the halves into quarters if they are large. Place the plums in an ovenproof dish and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Grill for 5 minutes or until the sugar has dissolved and the plums begin to brown. The cooking time will depend on the ripeness of the plums.
  3. Divide the plums between four serving plates and pour over any cooking juices. Add a spoonful of hazelnut yoghurt and sprinkle with reserved hazelnuts.
