Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F or 200°C), about 5 minutes.
- Rinse and halve 4 ripe peaches. Use a sharp knife to carefully remove the pits.
- Place peaches cut-side down on the grill. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until grill marks and golden caramelization appear.
- Flip peaches using tongs and grill for another 2–3 minutes with the skin side down until soft and warm with a smoky char.
- Remove peaches from grill and transfer to serving plates.
- Immediately top each peach half with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Optionally, drizzle honey or sprinkle chopped fresh mint on top before serving.
Notes
Use ripe but firm peaches for best grilling results. Avoid oiling the grill to prevent flare-ups. Watch peaches closely to avoid burning. Serve immediately for best contrast between warm peaches and cold ice cream. Dairy-free ice cream options can make this dessert vegan.
