Ingredients
  

  • 4 firm but ripe peaches yellow or white
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil or other neutral oil
Optional for serving:
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Greek yogurt
  • Light whipped cream
  • Drizzle of honey
  • Ice Cream

Equipment

  • Grill (gas or charcoal)
  • Grill brush (for cleaning grates)
  • Tongs or a spatula
  • Basting brush (for oil)
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Grill:
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Clean grates thoroughly.
  3. Prep the Peaches:
  4. Wash peaches and cut each in half, removing the pit.
  5. Brush the cut side of each peach half lightly with coconut oil.
  6. Grill:
  7. Place peaches cut-side down on the hot grill.
  8. Grill for 4–5 minutes, until grill marks appear and the peaches are softened and caramelized. For crosshatch marks, rotate peaches 90 degrees halfway through grilling.
  9. Serve:
  10. Remove the peaches from the grill. Serve warm, garnished with fresh mint, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of honey, if desired.

Notes

Tips for Success:

  • Use firm peaches but give slightly to pressure for best grilling results.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle with cinnamon before grilling or finish with a touch of balsamic glaze.
  • These grilled peach halves pair beautifully with a scoop of frozen yogurt or a sprinkle of toasted nuts.
