Time 45m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ripe but firm peaches or nectarines (about 1 pound), quartered and peeled
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 pint part-skim ricotta
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/2 honeydew melon, halved and cut into thick slices
1/2 pineapple, halved, cored, and cut into thick slices

1 bunch green or muscat grapes

Steps:

Poached Peaches: Combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook, gently stirring occasionally, until fruit is just tender, 5 to 10 minutes, depending on ripeness. Transfer peaches to a heatproof container with a slotted spoon; strain syrup over top. Let cool completely. Peaches in syrup can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 week. (Makes about 2 cups.)
Whipped Ricotta: Puree ricotta, vanilla, and maple syrup in a food processor or blender until creamy. Mixture can be refrigerated, covered, up to 5 days. (Makes 2 cups.)
Fruit Platter: Arrange all fresh fruits on a platter. Serve with poached peaches, whipped ricotta, and digestive biscuits.
