A super simple summer dessert featuring balsamic roasted stone fruit (peaches, plums and cherries) and vanilla ice cream. Feel free to wing the amounts—my friend just tossed the fruit with sugar and balsamic vinegar until they seemed "pretty well coated."

Balsamic Stone Fruit Sundae

¾ pound stone fruit (any combination of peaches, nectarines, plums and/or cherries)

turbinado (raw) sugar

balsamic vinegar

vanilla ice cream (or yogurt/frozen yogurt/dairy-free ice cream)

optional add-ins: freshly toasted almonds/pistachios or granola

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare the fruit: peel, pit and slice peaches/nectarines, pit and slice plums, and pit and halve cherries.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the stone fruit with sugar and balsamic vinegar and spread into a single layer. Bake for about 30 minutes, tossing halfway. Serve warm, with ice cream.

Hi Kate,

Your post inspired me to fill some cinnamon rolls, which I made today for work, with peaches. I had planned on strawberries, but there weren't any strawberries in the shops... So I bought peaches. I roasted them (just the peaches, without anything else, though as I had a spiced dough) in the oven, pureed them and used that as a filling. When I made it I spent 5 minutes to get all the remainders out of the mixing jar, eating them, because it was so heavenly. And the color was magical as well. When trying a roll today I figured using twice as much filling wouldn't have done any harm either ;-)
Thank you for the idea to roast peaches! You're introducing roasting fruit to me I guess ;-)

I made this for a cooking class I taught and everyone loved it!!  Hopefully you get some more readership, because I tell so many of my patients about your blog :)
