Print Recipe

Warm, tender grilled peach halves with caramelized edges paired with a cool, creamy honey mascarpone topping create a perfect summer dessert that balances sweet, smoky, and creamy notes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces (225 g) mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and dry 4 ripe but firm peaches. Cut them in half and remove the pits carefully to keep the halves intact.
  2. Brush each peach half lightly with 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter to prevent sticking and encourage caramelization.
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, around 375–400°F (190–204°C).
  4. Place peach halves cut side down on the grill. Let them cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until grill marks appear and the fruit starts to soften.
  5. Flip carefully and grill for another 2 minutes on the skin side to warm through. The peaches should be tender but still hold their shape, with a slight char on the edges.
  6. While the peaches grill, combine 8 oz (225 g) mascarpone, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Stir gently until smooth and creamy.
  7. Arrange grilled peach halves on serving plates. Add generous dollops of the honey mascarpone atop each peach.
  8. Drizzle extra honey over the top and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm peaches and cool mascarpone.

Notes

Choose firm but ripe peaches to avoid mushiness. Oil peaches generously to prevent sticking. Preheat grill properly to get good caramelization without burning. Serve immediately for best warm-cool texture contrast. Mascarpone mixture can be prepared ahead and kept chilled. For dairy-free version, substitute mascarpone with whipped coconut cream sweetened with maple syrup and vanilla.
