The internet is a funny place—you can take a food that’s been around forever, give it a new name or use the right buzzword and suddenly people can’t seem to eat enough of it (remember that “nature’s cereal” trend that was all over TikTok last year?) While the term “stone fruit” isn’t exactly new, the name seems to have taken off as an example of such a buzzword and inspired countless recipes from food bloggers as a result. It’s used to describe fruits such as peaches, cherries, and plums that have a stone-like pit in the center. These fruits are delicious on their own, but are even better as part of these popular recipes.
Stone Fruit Crostini
This crostini is easy to prepare, yet versatile enough to serve as both an appetizer at your next summer get-together or just for yourself should a craving strike. Use whatever fruit you have on hand and serve over some burrata cheese.
Peach Cobbler Cookies
There are few things we love more than desserts inspired by other desserts. In this recipe, fresh, juicy peaches are warmed up with a little cinnamon for a cookie that’s sure to satisfy all summer long.
Stone Fruit Galette
This pastry can be made with whatever stone fruit you have available and is sure to impress even the pickiest eaters. It’s lovely topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream but is equally satisfying when served on its own.
