Greek Yogurt Cream with Peaches, and Crumble
This is the first layered dessert served in a glass on the blog. It’s not that we don’t like desserts like this; that’s not the case. We usually reserve recipes like these for special occasions, like weekends, gatherings, picnics, or even more exclusive events like a baby shower. Desserts in glass are perfect for hot summer days, as we usually make them with light cream, seasonal fruits, and something that adds a bit of crunchiness. Today we choose a simple crumble with fresh rosemary that adds a lovely Mediterranean vibe. It’s so easy and super delicious.

How to make Greek Yogurt Cream with Peaches and Crumble at home

When Jernej first made this dessert, I said it was both complicated and straightforward. I know it sounds strange, but it’s true. It looks complex and delicate because of all those beautiful layers, yet each layer is so easily made. We have a light greek yogurt cream, a delicious fruit topping made of peaches and blackberries, and a sweet oat crumble. You can find the whole recipe below; here’s a quick overview for easier preparation.

METHOD

  • preparation

    Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 200 °C / 390 °F or 190 °C / 375 °F (fan-assisted oven).

  • crumble

    Add flour, oats, sugar, and cubed cold butter to a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and diced rosemary. Knead into a smooth dough, then place in the freezer for 5 minutes or in the fridge for 15 minutes.

  • peaches

    Clean the peaches, remove the kernel and cut each peach into eight wedges. Add to a saucepan along with sugar, vanilla, and water. Set over medium heat, stir to combine, and cook for 15 - 20 minutes or until the peaches become tender. Dissolve the Agartina in a small bowl with two tablespoons of water or use gelatine. Soak 1/2 tsp gelatine in 1 tbsp water. Add the lemon juice and Agartina/gelatine to the peach mixture, stir to combine, then bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the blackberries and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and bring to room temperature.

  • bake the crumble

    Line a small baking dish with parchment paper. Take the dough from the fridge or freezer and grate it onto the prepared baking sheet. Use the large holes on your grater. Spread the crumble in a single layer and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes at 200 °C / 390 °F or 190 °C / 375 °F (fan-assisted oven).

  • cream

    Whip together whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Stir in the greek yogurt and set aside until needed.
