Best Mixed Summer Fruit With Honey Cream Recipes

FRESH FRUIT WITH HONEY VANILLA MASCARPONE

Steps:

• Combine the apricots, plums, kiwi and cherries in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the mascarpone, honey, vanilla and vanilla seeds. Add the heavy cream and stir until combined.
• Pour the mascarpone mixture over the fruit, and serve.

SUMMER FRUIT, HONEY, AND HAZELNUT CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Put the fruits in a pan or microwave dish with about 1 inch water in the bottom and cook gently for 10- 15 minutes (4- 6 minutes in microwave), or until the fruits are soft without being totally mushy.
• Sweeten to taste with honey or brown sugar (Saxons would have used honey); how much you need will depend on what fruits you have used.
• Drain the excess juice and save to serve with the pudding.
• Chop the hazelnuts in a processor or liquidiser until they are almost (but not quite) as fine as the breadcrumbs, and then mix the two together.
• Spoon the fruit into an ovenproof dish and cover with a thick layer of hazelnuts and crumbs.
• Bake in a moderate oven 350F for 20 - 30 minutes or until the top is slightly crunchy and browned.
• Serve with lots of cream or plain yogurt and the warmed fruit juices.

MIXED FRUIT IN LIGHT HONEY SYRUP

Steps:

• Peel peaches and pears and cut into large pieces.
• Soak in a lemon juice/water combination if desired to reduce color change (optional).
• In a large pot, combine honey and water. Bring to a boil, stirring until well combined.
• Reduce heat to a simmer.
• Drain fruit and add to syrup mixture. Continue simmering until fruit is heated through.
• Spoon fruit into clean pint jars.
• Fill each jar with the hot syrup leaving ½ inch head space.
• Remove the bubbles (I use the handle of a rubber spatula, but there is an actual tool for this process. Just don't use anything metal).
• Wipe the tops of the jars with a damp paper towel, and cover with two-piece caps. Process in a water bath for 20 minutes.
• Makes 6 pints with some syrup left over (use it for another batch or to make sorbet or to sweeten iced tea).

SOUR CREAM-HONEY FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix sour cream, honey and orange juice until smooth.
