Ingredients for grilled peaches

These grilled peaches are easy to make, with a short ingredient list! They’re perfect for summer entertaining, especially if you’ve already got the grill fired up for the main dish. Here’s what you’ll need for these peaches:

  • Ripe peaches: Don’t use anything but ripe peaches! We can’t emphasize this enough. Only buy ripe, in season peaches for this recipe. You’ll want them just ripe, not too soft or they’ll turn mushy on the grill.
  • Brown sugar
  • Neutral oil like grapeseed or canola (here’s more)

How to find ripe peaches

It can be hard to find perfectly ripe peaches: so make sure to buy them during peach season! It’s great to buy them from your local farmer’s market if peaches are grown near you. Here are a few tips on shopping for ripe, juicy peaches:

  • Choose peaches that are still slightly firm, but that give way slightly when you press gently against them.
  • Ripe peaches should also smell fairly strong and should be bright in color. Any kind of peach works for this recipe; white or yellow, it doesn’t matter as long as the peach is super ripe!

Tips on how to grill peaches

Peaches can go directly onto the grill grates. You’ll just need to know a few basic items: grill temperature and approximate timing. Memorize that and then make grilled peaches on repeat all summer! Here’s what you need to know (or jump to the recipe):

  • Preheat a grill to medium high heat: that’s 375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cut the peaches in half, rub with oil, and sprinkle the tops with brown sugar.
  • Grill 4 minutes cut side down, then flip and cook 3 minutes until the peaches are soft and tender.

Toppings for these grilled peaches

These grilled peaches are just sweet enough on their own: but they’re meant to have toppings! Adding vanilla ice cream takes them from good to amazing status. Here’s what we’d suggest serving them with:

  • Drizzle of honey or maple syrup: Don’t forget this! It adds the final sweetness.
  • Fresh mint leaves: Fresh mint adds a delicious nuance of flavor, and a beautiful color.
  • Vanilla ice cream: The final touch: melty vanilla ice cream! This is what transforms the grilled peaches into the perfect dessert with a “peaches and cream” vibe. (It reminds us of our favorite peach pie!)
