Grilled Indiana Peaches with Honey & Cinnamon

Ingredients

• 4 fresh Indiana peaches, halved and pitted
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions

Step 1: Fire up the Arteflame grill

1. Pour some vegetable oil on three paper napkins and place them in the grill.
2. Stack firewood over the soaked napkins.
3. Light the napkins and allow the firewood to catch. The grill will be ready in about 20 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the peaches

1. Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits.
2. Brush each peach half with melted butter.
3. Drizzle honey over each peach half.
4. Sprinkle cinnamon and sea salt evenly over the peaches.

Step 3: Grill the peaches

1. Place the peach halves cut-side down on the Arteflame cooktop near the center where the heat is more intense.
2. Grill for 3-4 minutes until caramelized and lightly charred.
3. Flip the peaches and move them slightly further from the center to a medium heat zone.
4. Grill for an additional 2-3 minutes until tender.

Step 4: Serve and enjoy

1. Remove the peaches from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
2. Drizzle with extra honey if desired.
3. Serve on their own, with a scoop of ice cream, or as a topping for grilled meats.

Tips

• Use ripe but firm peaches for the best grilling results.
• Brushing with butter enhances flavor and prevents sticking.
• Adjust peach position on the cooktop to control caramelization.

Variations

1. Vanilla Bourbon Peaches: Replace honey with bourbon-infused syrup and add a splash of vanilla.
2. Maple Pecan Peaches: Substitute honey with maple syrup and top with toasted pecans.
3. Spicy Honey Peaches: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a sweet heat twist.
4. Lemon Thyme Peaches: Replace cinnamon with fresh thyme and add lemon zest.
5. Coconut Sugar Peaches: Use coconut sugar instead of honey for a caramel-like depth.
