A quick and easy grilled peaches recipe featuring a honey-thyme drizzle that balances sweet, smoky, and herbaceous flavors. Perfect for summer gatherings, desserts, or a sweet breakfast treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 3 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Optional toppings: crumbled goat cheese or vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  1. Rinse and pat dry 4 ripe peaches. Slice each peach in half and carefully remove the pit, keeping halves intact.
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C). If using a grill pan, heat over medium-high on stove.
  3. Lightly brush each peach half with 1 tablespoon olive oil to prevent sticking and add richness.
  4. Place peach halves cut side down on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly but hold shape.
  5. Flip peaches carefully and grill skin side for another 2-3 minutes until tender but not mushy.
  6. While peaches grill, combine 3 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme, and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice in a small bowl. Stir gently.
  7. Remove peaches from grill and transfer to serving plate. Drizzle honey-thyme mixture generously over warm peaches.
  8. Add optional toppings like crumbled goat cheese or vanilla ice cream if desired.
  9. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches to prevent falling apart on the grill. Brush peaches with olive oil to avoid sticking. Let peaches develop grill marks before flipping. Prepare honey-thyme drizzle while peaches cook. Serve warm for best flavor. For vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar and use vegan toppings. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 2 days and reheated gently.
