Grilled Nectarines and Peaches
Sweet, smoky, and irresistibly caramelized stone fruit kissed by fire and finished with a warm honey glaze. A 10-minute summer dessert (or side) that looks gourmet but couldn’t be easier.
Ingredients
- 4 ripe nectarines or peaches halved and sliced into wedges
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- pinch salt
- olive oil or butter for greasing the grill
Instructions
- Cut nectarines or peaches in half, remove the pits, and slice into even wedges.
- Whisk honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract (if using), and salt in a bowl to make the glaze.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grease the grates with olive oil or butter.
- Place fruit cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 2–3 minutes until grill marks appear.
- Flip the fruit, brush with glaze, and grill for another 1–2 minutes.
- Remove from heat, drizzle with remaining glaze, and serve immediately.
Notes
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently or enjoy cold. Freeze grilled fruit for smoothies or cocktails. No grill? Use a grill pan or broiler. Try it with plums, apricots, or pineapple for variation.
