These Caramelized nectarines with a scoop of Vanilla Ice cream is a delicious and easy dessert to try this summer season.

Good Morning everyone. It’s the weekend and I would like to start this weekend for you all on a sweet note. Summertime is full of delicious fruits in the market. One of those is Nectarines.

For this month’s FoodieMama segment, Manju from Cooking Curries picked up Nectarine as a featured ingredient. We worked with this amazing fruit and have come up with lip-smacking scrumptious recipes.

From my side, I chose to work on a quick dessert. Caramelized Nectarine With Ice cream is a no-brainer quick and easy dessert filled with delicious aroma and flavors. Yup, my kitchen smelled delicious when I made these.

These are a Must-Try for this Nectarine season. Caramelized Nectarines With Ice Cream. #FoodieMamas #easyrecipes Share on X

In the following recipe, I have used vanilla extract, cinnamon, and cardamom powder to flavor the nectarines while the brown sugar helped them caramelize. When these go into the oven and start cooking, the aroma is absolute heaven.

You will be in for an early fall treat. The aroma of vanilla, cinnamon, and cardamom. YUM.

The important thing here is to use parchment paper or a silicone mat while cooking the nectarines in the oven. The sugar gets melted and drips down the nectarines. This can later be cooled and used as a garnish while serving this dessert.

Nectarines are similar to peaches but they have firm smooth skin. A medium-sized nectarine contains 62 calories and is a good source of a number of minerals, vitamins, and dietary fiber.

It is a good source of beta-carotene, vitamin A, vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. With so many nutrients, this quick dessert is great for the entire family.
