Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
5 fresh bay leaves, halved lengthwise, or 2 large dried California bay leaves
2 (3- by 1-inch) strips fresh lemon zest
2 (3- by 1-inch) strips fresh orange zest
6 fresh apricots
1 lb fresh cherries (preferably Royal Ann or Rainier)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 cups plain yogurt (preferably Greek)
Accompaniment: maple granola brittle

Steps:

  • Simmer sugar, water, bay leaves, and zests in a 1-quart heavy saucepan 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let steep 20 minutes. While syrup steeps, halve apricots lengthwise and remove pits. Run a paring knife crosswise around each cherry, touching pit, then twist cherry halves to separate. Remove pits with tip of knife. Toss apricots and cherries with lemon juice in a large shallow bowl. Return syrup to a boil, then pour over fruit, tossing to coat. Cover and let stand, stirring occasionally, at least 30 minutes. Put 1/3 cup yogurt on each of 6 plates and serve with fruit.

These sundaes are a great make-ahead dessert. You can assemble them ahead of time and then store them in the freezer until you're ready to serve.

I'm not a big fan of cherries, but I still enjoyed these sundaes. The apricots and yogurt balanced out the tartness of the cherries.
