Talk about flexible!  This dessert can be remade any number of ways.  Stone fruits are fruits with a pit: plums, apricots, peaches, pluots. But pears or apples are any number of semi-firm fruits could work in this dessert.  Even grapefruit! 
And what a great way to use fruit toward the end of BBQ Season.  Of course if the weather is nasty, you can always grill the fruit on a grill pan, in a pan or on a griddle.  
Just remember the secret ingredient: butter.  Yep, good old fashioned butter will give you a nicer carmelization that oil, in my humble opinion, but using oil or even cooking spray will still get the job done.
For this desert I used apricots, plums and pluots (cross between a plum and an apricot), about 4 each.  That could serve anywhere about form 4-12 people depending on how you dish it up.
