    Grilled Peaches with Blackberry Sauce is such a simple, yet elegant end of summer dessert! They also take less than 5 minutes to prepare!

    I have given you quite a few different recipes for grilling this summer like this gorgeous appetizer, Grilled Brie with Strawberries and Balsamic and these sticky, Smoky Ribs on the grill.

    Now, I thought to end my beloved grilling season, I would show you a super simple, but elegant dessert to serve when the peaches are ripe!

    What you need

    • peaches
    • melted butter
    • basil
    Ingredients for dessert; peaches, melted butter, fresh basil.

    How to make grilled peaches

    1. First, prepare the blackberry sauce. Place all of the ingredients in a small saucepan. Heat to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce is thick and the berries have broken down, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This step can be done several days in advance.
    2. Cut peaches in half. (Make sure that you purchase freestone peaches! Clingstone peaches will not work because you can not get the 2 halves apart.) Brush butter on cut side of peaches.
    3. Place peaches on a hot grill, skin side down. Grill for 4 or 5 minutes.
    4. Flip peach halves and grill on the cut side for about the same time, until you achieve a nice grill mark. Serve with warm blackberry sauce and ice cream or whipped cream. Garnish with sprig of fresh basil.
    Process photos; See details in recipe below.

    Why you should make this easy dessert

    • It is incredibly easy. Only takes about 20 minutes, including the sauce.
    • Uses the freshest, seasonal ingredients for crowd pleasing favorite.
    • Impressive enough to serve to guests.
    • Sauce can be made ahead. At least 2-3 days ahead so that the whole dessert will take less than 10 minutes when you want to serve it.
    • Grilling the peaches enhances the natural sugars in this delicious dessert.
    • You could use coconut oil or a mild canola, olive or vegetable oil, instead of butter to make this dessert dairy free and vegan.
    • Naturally gluten free.

    Pro tips for your success

    • Important to use a variety of peaches that is freestone. Clingstone peaches will not split well and your presentation will suffer.
    • Use ripe but firm peaches. You don’t want the peaches too soft or they will fall apart.
    • Eliminate the wine if serving to kids or substitute lemon juice. The sauce is still good without it.
    • Make sure that your grill is very hot.
    • Basil or mint can be used for the garnish. It also really pairs well with the flavor profiles in this dessert.
    • Make sauce ahead if serving to company so that it only takes you a few minutes to make.

      What a fantastic treat for summer?! I am loving the grilled peaches with the summer blackberry combinations. The sauce is a fantastic way to use some of that left over wine I don’t drink up… Who am I kidding? I never have leftover wine, ha.. ha… I will just have to make that lovely sauce first before I pour myself a glass.
