This is a very simple dip to use with fresh fruit. It can be served in the same fashion as vegetables (crudites) and dip, a bowl of this surrounded on a plate by melon balls/slices, strawberries, grapes, kiwi, cherries, blueberries, bananas and apple slices.

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 bunch green or muscat grapes
3 kiwifruits, peeled and sliced
8 fresh figs, halved
2 cups mixed berries, such as blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries
Digestive Biscuits, for serving

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.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, fresh fruit for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh fruit, you can use frozen or canned fruit. Just be sure to drain the canned fruit well.
  • You can adjust the sweetness of the dip by adding more or less sugar.
  • If you want a creamier dip, you can add more ricotta cheese.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers, such as cookies, fruit, or crackers.
  • You can also use the dip as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or French toast.
