Grilled peaches are ULTRA-DELICIOUS summer dessert. Sweet juicy caramelized with smoky flavors straight from the grill, topped with smooth indulgent vanilla ice cream.

Here’s Why You Should Try Grilling Peaches:

• It’s too simple not to make it, you only need 3 ingredients and under 10 minutes. For light and healthy summer treat, this recipe is perfect. Grilling softens the flesh of the peaches and the sugar in it helps caramelize giving it a beautiful juicy, sweet, smoky flavor.
• Serve it as breakfast with Greek yogurt and granola on top, as dessert with vanilla or mascarpone cheese, tuck in sandwich along with brie, toss it in salad – lunch goals, wrap it in bacon – because everything is always better when it’s wrapped in bacon. So many options, SO GOOD!
• Stone fruits are one of the best things to grill. When peaches are available in plenty you definitely want to put them to good use. I believe this is the world’s most favorite way to eat peaches. And it can be served in million ways, from salads, to breakfast to desserts, why wouldn’t you grill your favorite stone fruit, right!

Selecting Right Peaches To Grill

Not all the peaches can be put on the BBQ. Too ripe ones aren’t sturdy enough and won’t stand it’s shape when you grill it. When your selecting peaches to BBQ, make sure you pick the ones that are just about ripe but firm.

Sturdy and ripe fruit allow them to hold it’s shape when you grill. Peach that are available for mid-June to mid-August are usually free-stone that has it pit fall easily, which are the best peaches for grilling.
