Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer dessert featuring grilled peaches topped with a creamy honey mascarpone cream that balances smoky sweetness and indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches (freestone varieties recommended)
  • 1 cup (240g) mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey (mild-flavored like clover or wildflower)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter (for brushing peaches)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C), which usually takes 10-15 minutes.
  2. Rinse 4 peaches, slice them in half, and carefully remove the pits using a sharp paring knife.
  3. Brush the cut sides of the peaches lightly with olive oil or melted butter to prevent sticking and help caramelize.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup mascarpone cheese, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt. Stir gently until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate if making ahead.
  5. Place the peach halves cut side down on the hot grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes without moving to get nice grill marks and caramelization.
  6. Flip the peaches and grill the skin side for another 2-3 minutes until tender but still holding shape.
  7. Transfer grilled peaches to a plate and let them cool for a few minutes until warm but not hot.
  8. Serve by spooning a generous dollop of honey mascarpone cream over each peach half. Optionally, drizzle more honey on top or sprinkle with chopped toasted nuts like pistachios or almonds.

Notes

Pat peaches dry before oiling to get the best caramelization. Do not overcrowd the grill for better heat circulation. Chill the honey mascarpone cream before serving for a perfect temperature contrast. Fresh peaches are best; frozen can be used if thawed and patted dry. For dairy-free, substitute mascarpone with coconut cream and honey with maple syrup.
