Nectarines with Port
By Easy Recipe Collection
Published:
Nectarines are so delicious when combined with port. Try them in this cinnamon laced nectarine dessert dish.
Ingredients
1 cup port (or other sweet red wine of choice)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cinnamon stick
6 nectarines, not peeled, divided in half
Fresh mint for garnish, if desired
Directions
Combine port or other sweet red wine, sugar and cinnamon stick.
Cook over medium-high heat for ten minutes or until reduced to about 1/3 cup. Remove from heat; discard cinnamon.
Meanwhile divide six (not-peeled), sliced nectarines among six dessert dishes.
Spoon port mixture over nectarines and garnish with fresh mint (if desired).
Yield: 6 servings
Notable Note
Nectarines can be used in the same ways as peaches, except if someone peels a peach because they object to eating the fuzz, they do not need to peel a nectarine. The nectarine skins can also be left on when making pies, cobblers and fresh fruit salads, etc.
