Description
Grilled Peaches with Spiced Whipped Cream is a simple and elegant summer dessert featuring smoky, tender peaches topped with creamy whipped cream infused with warm spices.
Ingredients
Peaches, halved and pitted
Neutral oil (avocado or olive oil) for brushing
Heavy cream
Sweetener (sugar, honey, or maple syrup)
Warm spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, or allspice) for whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Clean grates if recently used for meats.
- Brush the cut side of peach halves lightly with oil to prevent sticking and burning.
- Place peaches oil-side down on the grill. Do not move them once placed to get nice grill marks. Close the lid to allow smoke to build.
- Grill for 5-6 minutes until peaches are tender and smoky. For a lighter sear, grill 2-3 minutes. Avoid overcooking to prevent the fruit from falling apart.
- Meanwhile, whip heavy cream with sweetener and a pinch of warm spices until soft peaks form.
- Serve grilled peaches topped with a generous dollop of spiced whipped cream.
Notes
Try different warm spices like ginger, cardamom, or cloves in the whipped cream.
Sweeten whipped cream with powdered sugar, honey, or agave syrup.
Add toasted nuts, fresh mint, or caramel drizzle as toppings.
Substitute peaches with nectarines or plums for variety.
Use bourbon or rum to spike the whipped cream if desired.
