Description
Grilled peaches are the ultimate summer treat! Sweet, juicy peaches get a smoky flavor on the grill, topped with honey and fresh herbs. Add ice cream or try a savory twist!
Ingredients
- 4 ripe but firm peaches or nectarines
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped or torn (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts (optional, for garnish & crunch)
- Optional toppings: vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits.
- Heat a grill or grill pan to medium heat. Clean and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
- Brush the cut sides of the peach halves with olive oil or melted butter. If you are using cinnamon, sprinkle it lightly over the cut sides.
- Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks form and the peaches begin to soften.
- Remove peaches from the grill. Immediately drizzle on the honey while they are still warm.
- Garnish with fresh mint. Serve warm as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a dollop of yogurt. Sprinkle toasted nuts on top if desired.
