Ingredients List
For the Grilled Peaches with Cinnamon Sugar Butter:
- 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Butter:
- In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt if using. Set aside.
- Preheat the Grill:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent the peaches from sticking.
- Grill the Peaches:
- Place the peach halves cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes, until the peaches are soft and have visible grill marks. Flip the peaches and grill for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Brush with Cinnamon Sugar Butter:
- While the peaches are still warm, generously brush each peach half with the prepared cinnamon sugar butter, allowing it to melt and seep into the fruit.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the grilled peaches warm, topped with extra cinnamon sugar butter if desired. They can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Notes
Additional Tips and Notes
- Serving Ideas: Garnish your Grilled Peaches with Cinnamon Sugar Butter with fresh herbs like mint or basil for a pop of color and a refreshing contrast to the sweetness. You can also sprinkle a bit of crushed nuts, such as almonds or pecans, for added texture and flavor.
- Making It Ahead: While this dessert is best enjoyed fresh off the grill, you can prepare the cinnamon sugar butter ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, simply grill the peaches and brush them with the pre-made butter.
- Customizing the Flavors: Feel free to experiment with the cinnamon sugar butter by adding a pinch of nutmeg or allspice for a spiced twist, or a splash of bourbon for a deeper, richer flavor.
