Dessert doesn't need to be really sweet to seem indulgent. Broiling apricots with a touch of brown sugar intensifies the fruit's flavor without adding too many calories.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
8 apricots (about 1 pound), halved and pitted
4 teaspoons light-brown sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom

Steps:

  • Heat broiler to high, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Squeeze juice from grated ginger into a large bowl (you should get about 1 teaspoon juice); discard pulp. Add cream and granulated sugar. Whip until soft peaks form; refrigerate.
  • Place apricots, cut side up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Dividing evenly, top with brown sugar, butter, and cardamom. Broil until apricots just begin to char, 2 to 5 minutes. Top apricots with whipped cream, and serve immediately.
