Method
- Heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Put half the nectarines and half the flaked almonds in the baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the ground almonds, plain flour and caster sugar with a pinch of salt. Using a balloon whisk, slowly whisk in the eggs and yolks, stirring in the dry ingredients gradually to avoid making the mixture lumpy. Once the mixture has the consistency of a thick paste, stir in the double cream and alcohol to make a smooth batter. Pour it over the fruit and nuts in the dish, then lightly lay the remaining fruit on top and scatter over the remaining flaked almonds.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until there’s only the barest wobble in the middle when you shake the dish. Remove from the oven, leave for 20 minutes, then serve with cream or crème fraîche.

This is a very simple and delicious recipe! I didn’t have any rum or brandy so I substituted with one tablespoon of Amaretto liqueur and it was amazing. Four tablespoons of alcohol sounds like a lot, so if you’re not into a strong, boozy flavour, I recommend halving this amount because the fruit soaks it up and concentrates the flavour. A great tasting Dessert with little investment of effort Yum
