Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 8 whole fresh mint leaves
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a stovetop grill pan, set it over medium-high heat while preparing the peaches.
Gently wash the peaches and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice each peach in half and remove the pits using a spoon or a melon baller.
Brush the cut sides of the peach halves lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking during grilling.
Place the peaches cut-side down on the preheated grill. Grill for about 3 minutes, or until you see grill marks, and the peaches are slightly softened.
Carefully flip the peaches and grill the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are nicely charred and tender.
Remove the grilled peaches from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
Drizzle the warm peaches with honey, ensuring each half receives a generous amount.
Garnish each peach half with fresh mint leaves, adding a refreshing flavor contrast.
If desired, serve the grilled peaches with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for a delightful contrast of temperatures and flavors.
