- Step 1
In a medium saucepan, stir together nectarines, sugar and ⅓ cup water. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Fold in raspberries and blackberries and cook until juices are thickened, at least three minutes. Taste and add more sugar if necessary. Pour into a large bowl and let cool.
- Step 2
Line an 8½-by-4½-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap. When fruit is cool, cover base of pan with layer of brioche, cutting it to fit. Spoon ⅓ of the fruit on top. Cover with layer of brioche. Repeat, ending with fruit. Lay a piece of plastic wrap on top, then another loaf pan containing 2 to 3 pounds of weights (soup cans work well). Chill overnight.
- Step 3
When ready to serve, whisk together the crème fraîche, mascarpone and honey. Spoon into a serving bowl to be passed at the table. Remove weights, pan and top layer of plastic wrap from pudding. Unmold onto a serving plate with a lip so juices do not spill. Slice and serve.

I've made this recipe for years. Had a very difficult time locating it. I had to go to a saved copy to put in Amanda Hesser's name to finally get it on line.
It's a great recipe. The mascarpone and creme fraiche with honey is absolutley unbelievable. Can't figure out why no one has written any notes. Probably because it is hard to find.

I've never seen a summer pudding with nectarines before but as its hard to find red currants in the US it does make sense to substitute something. I find it better to put the hot fruit into the bread as it soaks in better, and I don't think the middle layer of brioche is necessary. Saving a little of the juice is useful to cover up any white spots before serving.
