A quick and easy summer recipe featuring grilled peaches paired with creamy burrata cheese and a sweet honey drizzle, perfect for casual dinners or elegant outdoor entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium fresh peaches, ripe but firm
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey (wildflower, clover, or acacia)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • A handful fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
  • Sea salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Rinse and dry 4 medium ripe peaches. Using a sharp knife, carefully halve and pit them. The peaches should be firm enough to hold their shape but juicy.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil with 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice. Stir well.
  3. Using a basting brush, lightly coat the cut sides of the peaches with the olive oil and lemon mixture.
  4. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  5. Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until grill marks form and the fruit softens slightly. Flip and grill skin side for another 2 minutes until tender but not falling apart.
  6. While peaches grill, remove 8 ounces of burrata from the fridge and let it come to room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  7. Arrange grilled peaches on a serving platter. Tear or slice burrata and scatter it over the peaches. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey evenly on top. Sprinkle sea salt and chopped fresh mint leaves if using.
  8. Serve immediately while warm to enjoy the contrast of smoky fruit, creamy cheese, and sweet honey.

Notes

If honey is thick, warm it slightly before drizzling. Use firm but ripe peaches to avoid mushiness. Brush peaches with oil to prevent sticking. Burrata should be at room temperature for best texture. For vegan option, substitute burrata with cashew-based cheese and honey with maple syrup.
