Roasted Figs and Cherries Dessert Recipe
Roasted Figs and Cherries Dessert Recipe
"Summer fruits are always so delicious, but if you roast them in the oven, then they become even more delicious. I also love the colors in this recipe – the deep red from the cherries, the faint red from the figs, and the golden yellow from the peaches. This dish is a really simple way to enjoy these fruits without too much work. Perfect if you’re on a Paleo or AIP (autoimmune protocol) diet. This simple dessert recipe uses 3 different fruits – figs, cherries, and peaches. The figs and cherries are roasted while the raw peaches are diced and served alongside the roasted fruits."

I never thought of roasting figs and cherries. Do they turn out like pineapple when you grill it? Does roasting them caramelize the fruit? I bet this is a delicious dessert with whipped cream or a cream cheese icing. I know some people who would want to pour this dessert over some vanilla ice cream while it is hot and add some cookie crumbles for texture. I think it sounds wonderful any way you serve it.
