INSPIRED BY

An original no-bake dessert that balances ripe summer fruit, tangy yogurt, and a salted honey finish.

Story

Casey makes these when the fruit is too good to hide under a complicated dessert. Tangy yogurt gives the peaches a cool, creamy landing place, and the oat crunch adds just enough buttery texture. A few flakes of salt make the honey taste even more like itself. The little glasses look festive, but the whole thing stays wonderfully unfussy.

By Casey

Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp kosher salt
2 cups plain Greek yogurt
3 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzling
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 ripe peaches, diced
1 tbsp lemon juice
Flaky sea salt, for finishing

Instructions

Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat, then add oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and kosher salt.
Cook the oat mixture, stirring often, until toasted and clumpy, 4 to 5 minutes, then spread it on a plate to cool.
Stir yogurt with honey and vanilla until smooth and lightly sweetened.
Toss the peaches with lemon juice and let them stand for 5 minutes so their juices collect.
Layer yogurt, peaches, and cooled oat crunch in six small glasses or jars.
Drizzle each cup with honey and finish with a few flakes of sea salt before serving or chilling.

Chef Tips

Cool the oat crunch completely before layering so it stays crisp.
Use nectarines or ripe plums when peaches are not available.
For a make-ahead dessert, keep the crunch separate until serving.
Taste the fruit before adding extra honey because ripe peaches vary in sweetness.

Cook's Notes

Use thick Greek yogurt so the layers stay distinct.
Keep the oat crunch in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Add the final drizzle right before serving for the prettiest finish.
If the peaches are very juicy, drain a spoonful of liquid before layering.
