This Grilled Peaches Recipe is the perfect treat for the warm summer weather. This quick and easy vegetarian recipe works great as a dessert or an appetizer for parties. Pair with Honey Mascarpone and fresh thyme for the perfect finish.

Summer is officially here and that means peaches galore! I am a huge peach fan, and even grew up on a small peach orchard. I spent my summers eating peaches in all forms, including this Grilled Peaches Recipe. The peaches are soft, sweet, perfectly charred and pair wonderfully with whipped Honey Mascarpone.

Pro Tips

Indoor Cooking Tip: If you are choosing to make these grilled peaches with mascarpone on the stove top I would highly recommend using a cast iron grill pan or skillet if you have one. The flavor comes out much better than using something like a non-stick pan. Also, you can get great grill marks when using a grill pan.

Char Mark Tip: To get the perfect grill marks let the peaches sit on one place and do not rotate them constantly. The more you mess with them the less the char marks will show in one place. If the peaches are getting to charred move them to indirect heat to continue to cook and not burn.

How to Grill Peaches

Prepping the Peaches

1. Wash and slice peaches in half lengthwise, then remove pits. 
2. Brush all cut side of peaches with olive oil or melted butter.
3. Sprinkle each cut and oiled peach half with brown sugar. 
4. On a heated outdoor charcoal or gas grill (or grill pan if cooking indoors) place peaches skin side up (oiled side down). 
5. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until peaches have started to soften and char. 
6. Remove the peaches from the grill with tongs and serve warm with Honey Mascarpone, whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or maple syrup.

Honey Mascarpone Prep

1. In a medium sized bowl combine mascarpone cheese, honey and vanilla extract. 
2. Use a whisk or fork to stir until light and combined. 
3. Scoop a spoonful of the mixture over each grilled peach and sprinkle with fresh thyme and additional honey.

Indoor Cooking Instructions

If you do not want to use an outdoor grill you could make these peaches in the oven or on a stove top. Follow grilled peaches recipe prep instructions for both of these options.

Oven Method: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Next, place peaches skin side down on a cookie sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes or until soft.

Stove Top Method: Use a grill pan or regular pan and heat over medium heat until and add the peaches when warm. For the best grilled peaches use a cast iron skillet or grill pan. Cook the peaches for 7-10 minutes until soft.

Note: You will not get the same char or marks as you would on the grill when using the oven method.  

Storytime

Okay, so peaches have held a special place in my heart since I was 12 years old. My family moved from the suburbs in St. Louis to a small town just oven the river. There we lived on several acres of land which included a small peach orchard.

My brother and I spent our summers trimming trees, collecting fallen peaches, and of course eating our fill. We even had a small stand set up in front of our house to sell them. This was our version of a lemonade stand and while this was all hard work we had so much fun doing it.

Hilariously enough my mom hates peaches, so it was just my brother and I eating them all. Over the years my mom and grandma taught me how to utilize the peaches in a number of ways. We would make things from grilled peaches, jam, pies, tarts, and even smoothies.

The peaches in my parents orchard were beyond the best on this planet and I miss living near them to enjoy them in the summer. Still to this day whenever I eat a peach I think about summers spent barefoot going out into my backyard to pick myself a fresh peach for breakfast.

I hope you and your family love this Grilled Peaches Recipe with Mascarpone as much as my family does. Leave a comment below to let me know how you liked these juicy peaches.
