NECTARINE AND BLUEBERRY CRISP WITH AMARETTI TOPPING



Nectarine and Blueberry Crisp With Amaretti Topping image

A wonderful Giada de Laurentis recipe. The amaretti in the topping can be substituted with biscotti. I personally don't like the marscapone on top and usually substitute vanilla ice cream....

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pint blueberries
2 large ripe nectarines, pitted and cut into thick slices
1/2 Meyer lemon, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup tightly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch kosher salt
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/4 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pea-sized pieces
1/2 cup sliced almonds
Pinch kosher salt
1 to 2 tablespoons cold water
1 cup mascarpone cheese
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the filling: Toss the blueberries and nectarines in a large bowl with the lemon zest and juice. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine. Divide the filling evenly among 4 (6-ounce) ramekins.
  • For the topping: Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor except the water. Pulse until combined, this will take about 30 seconds. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is clumpy but crumbly.
  • Top each ramekin with the topping. Be sure to loosely sprinkle the topping and not pack it down. The idea is to look very crumbly and craggy.
  • Place the ramekins on a sheet tray and bake in the oven until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is brown and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Sweeten the mascarpone with the sugar. Onto a small sheet pan or plate, neatly spoon 4 small portions of sweetened mascarpone and chill until ready to serve.
  • Top each crisp with a quenelle of cold mascarpone. Serve the crisps warm.
