Grilled peaches with honey and ice cream makes a perfect, simple and scrumptious summertime dessert.
Grilled Peaches with Honey and Ice Cream is one of our favorite desserts to make during the peak of peach season. It is so simple, fresh, and absolutely heavenly.
Grilled Peaches with Ice Cream and Honey
Oh my goodness. We are in the peak of peach season and I can’t get enough! I want to share this simple, easy, and quick grilled peach recipe that has been on repeat around here. It is great for easy family suppers, entertaining, and especially when camping.
Grilling peaches takes no time at all really and within 10 minutes you have this dessert that just screams summertime. It is right up there with peach cobbler for a favorite peach dessert for me lately.
How to Grill Peaches
Be sure to pick really ripe peaches when you buy them to ensure the best grilled peaches. If they aren’t fully ripe, you can just leave them on the counter for a day or two and they will ripen. I’ve also been known to keep them in a brown paper bag on the counter to get the process going even more quickly.
The grill brings out the full flavor of the peaches, making them even juicier and more tender.
Watch the grill closely to prevent any flare ups. To help prevent that, I place my peaches on the grill flesh side down first. That way, the peaches have begun to soften and become juicier, but when you flip them the juices will pool inside the middle where the pit has been removed.
Absolute perfection!
But wait.
It gets even better.
I promise.
Pull your peaches off of the grill and then add them to a bowl with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if you like.
But definitely, definitely, definitely do not forget the honey.

Great way to enjoy peaches! The pictures are gorgeous, Robyn.
Thank you so much, Naomi. That means so much coming from YOU!!!!
I have GOT to try this!! Peaches aren’t in season here for a little while longer, but I’m definitely bookmarking this one to try!
I can’t wait to hear how you like it, Deborah. It works great with nectarines, apricots, and plums as well, but peaches are my personal favorite. 🙂
Oh that looks so, so good! I just bought some peaches earlier today and after one bite, I immediately wish I’d bought a whole heck of a lot more of them!
When you find really good peaches, you wish you could just have a ton of them, don’t ya?
Wow, your pics are completely drawing me in – gorgeous!!! I can’t wait for some gorgeous peaches to show up in our area!
Thanks so much, Brenda. I look forward to peach season all spring and can’t get enough of them when they are their peak. Hoping yours are ready soon.
Just bought some juicy fresh peaches, and good thing I stumbled upon this idea. I will skip the ice cream though, have to watch calories 🙂

Instead of the ice cream, try a chunk of dark chocolate. Put it on the peach while it’s grilling and it melts in the center. It’s delicious! Oh and lawhealthyliving, you could argue that dark chocolate is nutritious!
Sorry, I spelled lahealthyliving wrong!
What I really love about people like you sharing recipes is the emphasis you put on small small things that make the final outcome well worth the effort. It’s not just the ingredient and the method/ steps for execution but tips like placing the peaches on the grill flesh side down first, so that when peaches have begun to soften and become juicier, the juices will pool inside the middle where the pit has been removed when you flip them and that one needs to pick really ripe peaches to ensure the best grilled peaches. Such hints form the basis of successful execution of any recipe. Well done! I’ll definitely try it [with honey] and a full scoop of vanilla ice cream. 😉 Thanks.
Look so delicious! and I love yours pics. I will try to make this, but I’m not sure if it like yours because the ingredients in Vietnam are quite different.
