Roasted apricot eton mess w/ vanilla mascarpone

This is an incredibly simple but utterly delicious dessert. It’s perfect for entertaining because it can be made in advance. Substitute the apricots for roasted peaches or any stonefruit you enjoy.

Roasted apricot Eton mess

Serves 6

8 ripe apricots

2 tablespoons honey for roasting

2 tablespoons lemon juice

400 grams mascarpone

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon vanilla paste

12 small / medium store-bought meringues

Extra honey for drizzling

Preheat the oven to 150 degrees Celsius. Cut each apricot in half, remove the stone and slice the fruit into 8 wedges. Place in an oven proof dish, drizzle with the honey and lemon juice. Toss well. Cook for 25 minutes, tossing once during cooking. Place in the fridge to cool completely before assembling the dessert.

Mix together the mascarpone, honey and vanilla.

Place a layer of fruit into the bottom of each glass. Break 6 meringues into roughly 3 pieces and layer on top. Dollop generously with mascarpone. Repeat another layer of fruit, then meringue and a final layer of mascarpone. Drizzle with a little honey. Serve immediately or place in the fridge
