Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Wash the peaches, pat them dry, and cut them in half. Remove and discard the pits.
In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and brown sugar together.
Lightly brush the cut side of the peaches with olive oil using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the cut side of the peaches.
Place the peaches cut-side down on the preheated grill. Cook for 3 minutes or until grill marks form.
Flip the peaches over and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until they are soft but not mushy.
While the peaches are grilling, prepare the yogurt topping by mixing the vanilla yogurt with honey in a small bowl.
Remove the peaches from the grill and place them on serving plates, cut-side up.
Spoon a dollop of the vanilla yogurt mixture onto each peach half.
Optional: Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a touch of color and freshness.
Serve warm and enjoy this light and flavorful dessert!
