A quick and easy summer dessert featuring smoky grilled peaches topped with a smooth, sweet honey mascarpone cream. Perfect for backyard barbecues and casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1 cup (about 8 oz) full-fat mascarpone cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons honey, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter, for brushing
  • Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Rinse the peaches and slice them in half, removing the pits. If large, cut each half into quarters for easier grilling.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F. If using a grill pan, heat over medium for 5 minutes.
  3. Lightly brush the cut sides of the peaches with olive oil or melted butter to prevent sticking and promote caramelization.
  4. Place peaches cut side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches start to soften.
  5. Flip peaches carefully and grill skin side for another 2 minutes, aiming for tender but not mushy peaches.
  6. While peaches grill, whisk together mascarpone, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon juice in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
  7. Remove peaches from grill and let cool for a minute. Spoon a generous dollop of honey mascarpone over each peach half.
  8. Drizzle with extra honey and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Do not overcook peaches; they should be tender but still hold their shape. Use a light coat of oil to prevent sticking and flare-ups. Whisk mascarpone mixture just before serving to keep it light and fluffy. Fresh peaches are preferred over frozen for best texture and flavor.
