Recipe: Spiced Oranges With Greek Yogurt Whip

Serves 4.

Note: This recipe is easily expanded to serve a crowd or can be cut back for an indulgent and lovely dessert for one. The Greek yogurt is tangy and rich, especially the whole milk variety, but 2 percent or nonfat will work equally well. To toast the almonds, preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spread the almonds on a pan and bake until fragrant, about 2 to 4 minutes. From Beth Dooley.

• 4 medium navel oranges (such as Cara Cara)

• 1 cinnamon stick

• 1 tbsp. cloves

• 2 c. Greek yogurt

• 2 to 3 tbsp. honey, or more to taste

• 1/4 c. slivered almonds, toasted (see Note)

Directions

Peel the oranges and slice into wheels, being careful to catch any juice. Place all in a medium bowl. Add the cinnamon stick and cloves. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

In a medium bowl, whisk the yogurt with the honey.

To serve, remove and discard the cinnamon sticks and cloves. Spoon the yogurt into individual bowls or a large serving bowl. Arrange the orange slices over the yogurt and drizzle the juice over all. Scatter the almonds over the top right before serving.
