Grilled Peaches

June 18, 2015


Grilled peaches are one of my favorite summertime treats!  They are SO quick and easy to prepare and only take a few minutes on the grill.  Top them with some ice cream, sprinkle some granola, and you have a delicious treat that took exactly no slaving away and no hot oven.  Can’t beat that in the heat of the summer!

Grilled Peaches


Ingredients:

  • 4 peaches
  • 1 Tbsp melted butter

Optional:

  • vanilla ice cream 
  • granola
  • raspberries
  • caramel sauce
  • real maple syrup
  • crushed nuts

Directions:

  1.  Heat grill to medium.
  2. Slice peaches in half and remove pit.
  3. Brush peaches with melted butter and grill for 3-5 minutes per side (I let them cook until they have nice grill lines).  
  4. Top with ice cream and granola (or other suggested toppings), if desired, for a healthier “peach cobbler” option! 

Notes:

  • For a dairy-free option, use coconut oil or avocado oil in place of the melted butter.  The coconut oil adds a nice flavor too.  
  • If you don’t want to use any of the oils mentioned above, just stick with a neutral-tasting oil.  
  • I have eaten these plain (without the ice cream and granola) and they are still delicious.
  • My sister-in-law Emily gave me the idea to top it with granola.  Thanks Em!
  • In the pictures I actually topped it with a no-churn coconut raspberry ice cream (coming soon), which made it dairy free and gluten free, and it was delish!  (just make sure your granola is gluten free)
  • The raspberries were courtesy of my sweet 6 year old, who likes to pick them more than she likes to eat them.
