Having a BBQ tonight but not sure what to do for dessert? Try these Grilled Peaches with Cinnamon and Brown Sugar!! With just a handful of ingredients and hardly any prep time, you can have this easy dish ready in minutes.
What You Need
- 4 peaches, halved and pitted
- 1/8 cup vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- A good vanilla ice cream
What To Do
- Preheat grill for medium heat for about 8-10 Minutes
- In a small bowl, combined brown sugar and cinnamon and leave to one side.
- Brush cut halves of peaches with oil and place face down on the grill. Brush the outside (skin side) of the peaches with oil while the other side cooks. Grill for about 3 minutes, or until peaches are just beginning to develop grill marks.
- Using tongs, carefully flip the peaches. Sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the cut side of the peaches and grill for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove peaches from grill and cool slightly.
- Place one or two peaches in an individual serving dish. Top with vanilla ice cream.
This dessert just screams SUMMER TIME.
Grilled fruit may sound completely out there… but, most fruits like Watermelon, pineapple or banana work well when grilled. It’s because of the high sugar content in fruit, they tend to caramelize well when cooked on the grill, experiment with a few to see what your favourite is. I’ve tried loads at this point, but peaches are still my all-time favourite!
When the peaches are done, simply take them off the grill and then add them to a bowl with a scoop of your favourite vanilla ice cream… and, definitely, definitely do not forget an extra little topping like honey or caramel sauce! – A real treat!
A few little tips!
Choosing the Peaches.
When you are choosing Peaches for this dessert, I recommend looking for large and firm peaches. If they’re too soft, they’ll be difficult to handle and will lose their texture when cooked.
Look for peaches that smell fragrant with just a bit of give when you squeeze them gently.
Enjoy, and let me know what you think via our Facebook or Instagram.
