GRILLED PEACHES IN BALSAMIC GLAZE
i hope all of my stateside friends had a wonderful holiday celebration yesterday! mine was not traditional- it was a spa day and dinner with some great friends in lieu of grilling and beach time but i wouldn't have had it any other way! and today i offer up these grilled peaches, the easiest summer treat in town. tis the season for peaches and if you hadn't guess, i cannot get enough! have an amazing weekend friends, i'll see you back here next week with all sorts of goodness! xx- sarah {more after the jump}
INGREDIENTS:
4 ripe peaches
1 1/2 cups balsamic vinegar (high quality)
1 tablespoon honey
1 can full fat coconut milk, refrigerated over night
5 teaspoons lavender sugar (or other sweetener)
chopped walnuts to garnish
METHOD:
- you'll want to make the balsamic glaze a little ahead of time if possible, this will give it a chance to thicken up a bit. to prepare, combine honey and balsamic in a medium weight pan and bring to a boil. reduce heat to a simmer and cook until it becomes thicker and syrupy- 15-25 minutes. remove from heat and set aside.
- prep peaches by coating both sides of the halves in grapeseed oil
- heat grill or grill pan to medium/low
- place peaches on grill and cook covered, roughly 3-4 minutes on each side, until they're soft and have grill marks
- while peaches are cooking combine the solid part of the coconut milk with the lavender sugar. beat with a hand mixer on high until the consistency of whipped cream is achieved (should only take a minute or so!)
- serve warm peaches with a dollop of whipped cream, a light drizzle of balsamic and chopped walnuts to garnish
- enjoy!

Heaven! I love peaches, and also have been eating a lot of them lately.
Have a lovely weekend.
Yum! This sounds awesome, we had grilled peaches with vanilla ice cream for dinner last night! I love the touch of balsamic though, add a little sour to the sweetness, also makes for some lovely pictures! Do you mind sharing what kind of camera you use?
Once more, this looks SO delicious - and isn't anything I'd consider making on my own!
Oh these look so so good. And perfect as a treat for a warm summer evening.

Oh these look good! And easy. I've never heard of lavender sugar but I'm going to see if I can find it here in the UK!
