Nectarines with Basil Mascarpone Cream
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
The secondary plant substance quercetin from Nectarines can lift the mood and even counteract depressive moods. Mascarpone scores with vitaminB2, which is important for nerve development and energy metabolism.
If you can't get nectarines, you can make this fruity summer dessert with peaches instead. In late summer, plums are also a good choice. If you want to save a few calories, you can replace some of the mascarpone with cottage cheese.

Preparation steps
Wash the nectarines, cut them in half, pit them and place them in an ovenproof dish with the cut sides facing down. Mix apple juice and sugar, pour over nectarines and bake in preheated oven at 200 °C / 400˚ F for 25-30 minutes.
