A simple and delicious dessert featuring grilled peaches topped with a luscious honey-cinnamon mascarpone cream. Perfect for summer evenings and easy to prepare in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large fresh peaches, ripe but firm
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) mascarpone cheese
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: chopped fresh mint or basil for garnish
  • Optional: crushed pecans or walnuts for texture

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry 4 large peaches. Cut each peach in half along the natural seam, twist to separate, and remove the pit. If peaches are very firm, score the flesh lightly to help caramelize evenly.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F). Ensure grates are clean to prevent sticking.
  3. Lightly brush the cut sides of each peach half with 1 tablespoon olive oil to prevent sticking and encourage caramelization.
  4. Place peaches cut side down on the hot grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes without moving to get clear grill marks and caramelization. Flip and grill another 2-3 minutes on the skin side until tender but not mushy.
  5. While peaches grill, combine mascarpone cheese, honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk gently until smooth and creamy.
  6. Transfer grilled peaches to serving plates, cut side up. Spoon a generous dollop of honey-cinnamon mascarpone over each half. Garnish with chopped fresh mint or crushed nuts if desired. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and mascarpone slightly soft.

Notes

[‘Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid them falling apart on the grill.’, ‘Close the grill lid to keep heat steady but check frequently to avoid burning.’, ‘Drizzle extra honey over the assembled peaches for prettier presentation.’, ‘Use a timer and instant-read thermometer for consistent grill temperature and timing.’, ‘For dairy-free version, substitute mascarpone with coconut cream whipped with cinnamon and vanilla.’, ‘If no grill is available, broil peaches in the oven on high for 3-5 minutes per side or use a grill pan indoors.’]
