Ingredients
Scale
- 4 to 6 ripe peaches
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 to 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits carefully.
- Brush the cut side of the peaches lightly with olive oil.
- Brush the grill grates with olive oil if needed to prevent sticking.
- Place peaches cut side down on the grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until grill marks form and peaches soften.
- While the peaches cook, melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Stir sugar and cinnamon into the melted butter mixture.
- Remove peaches from the grill and place them on a rimmed baking sheet or serving platter.
- Slowly spoon the cinnamon butter mixture over the grilled peaches so it soaks into the centers.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and any toppings you prefer.
Notes
- Use peaches that are ripe but still slightly firm so they hold their shape on the grill.
- Leave the skins on while grilling to help keep the peaches intact.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave before serving again.
