Peach Ingredients
- 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- 1 tbsp vegetable or canola oil
Toppings
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
- Honey, for drizzling
- Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat to prepare it for grilling the peaches. This ensures even cooking and nice grill marks.
- Brush and Grill Peaches: Brush the cut sides of the peach halves with the vegetable or canola oil to prevent sticking. Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until they become soft and start to caramelize.
- Flip Peaches: Carefully flip the peaches so the skin side is down. Continue grilling for another 4 to 6 minutes until the peaches are tender and beginning to fall apart, indicating they are perfectly cooked.
- Serve: Remove the peaches from the grill and serve warm. Top each peach half with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzle with honey, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt to enhance the flavors.
Notes
- Choose ripe but firm peaches for the best grilling results to prevent them from falling apart too quickly.
- You can substitute vegetable or canola oil with melted butter for a richer flavor.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle cinnamon or a touch of chili powder before grilling.
- If you don’t have a grill, you can use a grill pan on the stovetop as an alternative.
