Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

6 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 6 peaches
Caramel topping
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 0.25 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
Serving
  • 1 vanilla ice cream
  • 1 honey for drizzling

Method
 

Prep the peaches
  1. Brush peach halves with melted butter on all sides until lightly coated.
  2. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle generously over the cut side of peaches so the surface looks sandy and packed.
Grill
  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat, then place peaches cut-side down.
  2. Grill for 4-5 minutes until the cut side is caramelized and grill marks form.
  3. Flip the peaches and grill for another 3-4 minutes until tender and lightly browned on the second side.
Serve
  1. Remove from the grill and serve warm immediately with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of honey.

Notes

For the best caramelization, grill cut-side down without moving the peaches for the first 4-5 minutes. Refrigerate leftovers up to 2 days; rewarm briefly in a skillet or on a low grill. Freezing is not recommended due to texture changes. For a dairy-free option, swap vanilla ice cream with coconut-based vanilla ice cream.
