Easy

Grilling peaches concentrates their natural sweetness and adds a smoky char that is absolutely divine. The high heat caramelizes the sugars on the cut surface, creating a jammy, almost candy-like texture. A sprinkle of cinnamon sugar and a scoop of ice cream is all you need for an effortless, elegant dessert.

Instructions

Prep the peaches

Cut peaches in half and remove the pit. Brush the cut sides with melted butter. Mix sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then sprinkle over the cut surfaces.

Grill cut-side down

Place peaches cut-side down on a grill over medium-high heat (400°F). Grill for 4-5 minutes without moving until deep grill marks form and the sugar caramelizes.

Pro tip: Choose peaches that are ripe but still firm — overripe peaches will fall apart on the grill.

Flip and warm

Flip to skin side down and grill 2-3 more minutes until the peaches are heated through and slightly softened.

Serve

Place peach halves on plates, cut-side up. Top each with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of honey. Serve immediately.

Serving Suggestions

Serve immediately while the peaches are warm and the ice cream is just beginning to melt into the caramelized surface.
