Equipment

Grill pan, or charcoal/gas grill

Ingredients

4 peaches ripe but firm
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey
pinch ground cinnamon

Instructions

GAS GRILL: To make this grilled peaches recipe, preheat the gas grill to medium-high heat on half the grill but low heat on the other half of the grill.
Brush the peach halves with oil.
Place peaches on the grill, cut side down, over direct heat until they get nice grill marks, and start to soften (about 4-5 minutes).
Brush their tops with oil, turn peaches over, then move to the indirect heat side of the grill to continue cooking for 4-5 minutes more. Serve them brushed with a mixture of honey and cinnamon and top them with whipped cream and a drizzle of honey.
CHARCOAL GRILL: Heat charcoal and locate the on one side of the grill, leaving the other side without any charcoal.
Brush the cut sides of the peaches with oil.
Place them on the grill, cut side down, over direct heat (charcoal side) until the peaches get grill marks and soften (5-6 minutes).
Brush the tops of the peaches with oil, turn over, and move to the indirect heat side of the grill (no charcoal side) to continue cooking (5-6 minutes more). Serve them brushed with a mixture of honey and cinnamon.
INDOOR GRILL PAN: Cut the peach in half and remove the pit. Heat a large cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat.
Brush the cut sides of the peaches with oil.
Place peaches on a grill pan, cut side down and let it cook for about 3-5 minutes or just until they get nice grill marks.
Brush the tops with oil, turn over, reduce heat to medium, and grill them for 3 to 5 minutes or until grilled and slightly softened. Serve them brushed with honey and cinnamon mixture.

Recipe Notes

I reduced a mixture of ½ cup teriyaki sauce, ¼ cup of pineapple juice, and ¼ cup of sugar to half on the stovetop over medium heat. Once it was almost cool, I brushed the peaches with it before grilling in the original recipe, giving them a salty and sweet flavor. This is a new recipe!

STORAGE:

Store them in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days. I prefer not to freeze them because they can become mushy after thawing. But if the texture is not an issue for you, you may freeze grilled peaches in a freezer bag for up to one month. Thaw in the fridge and microwave them for up to 30 seconds to enjoy them warm with ice cream.
