With summer in full swing and the kids home from school, I’m always on the lookout for fun and delicious ways to keep our days exciting.
One of our family’s favorite summer treats has become grilled peaches.
They’re simple, quick, and oh-so-yummy—perfect for those lazy summer evenings when you want something sweet but don’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen.
Let me share a little story about how grilled peaches with ice cream became a staple in our summer dessert rotation.
It was last summer on a particularly hot afternoon.
The kids were running around in the backyard, splashing in the kiddie pool, and I was looking for a way to cool down while satisfying everyone’s sweet tooth.
I had a few ripe peaches on the counter and a tub of vanilla ice cream in the freezer. Inspiration struck, and I decided to fire up the grill.
I sliced the peaches in half, brushed them with a bit of honey, and placed them on the grill.
The smell was incredible, and as they got those beautiful grill marks, I knew we were in for a treat. I scooped out some vanilla ice cream and topped the warm, juicy peaches with it.
Watching the ice cream melt over the peaches was pure magic.
The kids’ eyes lit up, and we all dug in, savoring every bite of the sweet, caramelized peaches paired with the creamy, cool ice cream.
Since that day, grilled peaches have become our go-to summer dessert.
Whether we enjoy them with ice cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze, they always bring a smile to our faces.
So, let’s dive into some grilled peach ideas that will make your summer evenings extra special!
