When I ask my friends what they’ve been grilling lately the answer is usually a meat or a vegetable. This is the norm but what if I told you that grilling fruit is to die for? If you think I’m off my rocker, you’re not alone. When I first offered my very British Father some grilled fruit he kindly took the time to tell me exactly why he thinks I’m mad. He still refuses to try any samples but hey his stubbornness is my reward…means more grilled fruit for me!
Grilled fruit is a favourite around here and today I’m happy to share my Grilled Peaches Recipe with you all. It takes just a few minutes and is oh-so good!
Grilled Peaches
INGREDIENTS
- Peaches
- Whipped Cream
- Pure Maple Syrup
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
PREPARATION
This is such a simple dish, the most difficult part (which isn’t difficult at all) is halving the peaches.
On a cutting board, cut into a peach until it hits the pit in the centre. Now turn the peach and continue cutting around the whole peach.
Now grasp the peach gently in both hands (one on each side of the cut) and twist it open
Once it’s opened you may have to cut around the pit to get it out, if your peach is more ripe it will be easier.
Now just brush the maple syrup onto both sides of your peaches and place onto a grill which has been pre-heated to medium (approx 350 degrees).
Grill the peaches approximately 4 minutes a side with the lid closed.
Now transfer to a plate and top with sliced strawberries, blueberries and whipped Cream.
I think you’ll agree this is a simple recipe which everyone will enjoy!

July 17, 2014 at 3:23 pmThe only fruit I’ve grilled previously has been pineapple. Those peaches look pretty good though so I am going to have to give them a try.
