This recipe for Honey Roasted Nectarine Ice Cream is inspired by combining two recipes, a delicious no churn ice cream recipe and one of my favourite Italian desserts, roasted nectarines. 
I always use Nigella Lawson’s no churn ice cream recipe as it is quick, easy and super delicious. One of my favourite desserts is Baked Peaches Stuffed with Amaretti, a recipe I learnt in Tuscany when I was attending a cooking course with Giancarlo and Katie Caldesi.
Roasting the nectarines concentrates the flavour and is delicious mixed in to the ice cream making for a summery dessert that balances floral, fruity, and creamy notes. You can roast them in the oven if you have another recipe that needs the over, or to save time just pop them in the air fryer and roast until soft and caramelised on the edges. There is quite a bit of sweetness here so add some lemon zest for some citrus notes.
I feel it is very important to add a good pinch of salt otherwise the Honey Roasted Nectarine Ice Cream will just be layers of sweetness, you need the salt to add some depth. Serve the Honey Roasted Nectarine Ice Cream as is or with a simple shortbread biscuit for extra texture. I hope you enjoy this recipe for Honey Roasted Nectarine Ice Cream.
