Prepare the nectarines by slicing in half and removing the stone. Place each half cut side up in a roasting tray. Mix the lemon zest, lemon juice and maple syrup together in a small bowl and drizzle over the prepared fruit.
Now add both the nectarines and the hazlenuts to the oven.
Roast the nuts for 8-10 minutes and remove from the oven. The skins will start to blister away from the nuts as they roast.
Continue roasting the nectarines for a further 10 minutes until soft but not falling apart. Remove from the oven once cooked.
While the nectarines finish roasting, place the roasted hazelnuts in a clean tea towel or kitchen roll and rub together to remove the skins. The skins should come off easily, then crush the nuts and set them aside.
Serve 2 halves of nectarine per person, top with a heaped tablespoon of Greek yogurt, the crushed hazelnuts and drizzle over the juices from the fruit roasting tin. Serve and enjoy warm or cold.
Notes
Nectarines can be substituted with peaches or apricots.Hazelnuts can be swapped out for pistachio nuts or almonds.Honey is a great replacement for maple syrup.
