Yogurt bowl, stewed fruit - Greece breakfast recipe

Method

Stew the fruit.

Place fruit cut-side down in a small pan over medium heat. Add honey, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Cook 5–7 minutes until the fruit softens and releases its juices. Turn once halfway.

Note. Stone fruits need 7–8 min, fresh figs only 4–5. You want them soft but holding their shape.

Cool slightly.

Remove from heat and let cool for 3–4 minutes. The warm fruit on cold yogurt is the whole point.

Assemble.

Spoon the yogurt into bowls. Arrange the stewed fruit on top. Pour the cooking juices over everything.

Finish and serve.

Scatter crushed pistachios generously on top. Add a final drizzle of honey. Eat immediately.
