Peanut Free Classic Grilled Peaches
Summer fruit doesn't get much better than a perfectly caramelized peach straight off the grill, and this recipe delivers that smoky-sweet magic with just a handful of pantry staples. Ripe peaches get brushed with a honey-butter glaze spiked with cinnamon and a pinch of salt, then cooked cut-side down until deep grill marks form and the natural sugars turn golden and jammy. A second baste before flipping keeps the flesh tender and glossy, so every bite is rich, fragrant, and just a little bit indulgent. The ingredient list is refreshingly short and completely free of peanuts or peanut-derived oils — the neutral canola or grapeseed oil is used only to prep the grates, so there's no hidden risk lurking in the glaze. Served warm alongside vanilla ice cream and a few fresh mint leaves, this is the kind of effortless dessert that looks far more impressive than the work it actually takes. It's equally at home as a backyard cookout finale or a quiet weeknight treat when peaches are at their peak.
