Grilled candied peaches are a delicious and easy dessert that combines the natural sweetness of peaches with a caramelized, candied exterior. Here’s a simple recipe you can try:
Ingredients:
- 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or yogurt for serving
Instructions:
- Prepare the Grill:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the Peaches:
- In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Brush the cut sides of the peaches generously with the sugar-butter mixture.
- Grill the Peaches:
- Place the peaches cut side down on the preheated grill.
- Grill for about 4-5 minutes, or until you see nice grill marks and the peaches start to caramelize.
- Flip the peaches and brush the tops with more of the sugar-butter mixture.
- Grill for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the peaches are tender and caramelized.
- Serve:
- Remove the peaches from the grill and let them cool slightly.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a spoonful of yogurt.
Tips:
- You can also add a splash of bourbon or rum to the sugar-butter mixture for an extra depth of flavor.
- If you don’t have a grill, you can use a grill pan on your stovetop or even broil the peaches in the oven.
