Ingredients
For the Peach Melba
- 2 large ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons light-brown sugar
For the Raspberry Sauce
- 1/2 pint raspberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Ice cream
Directions
-
Heat grill to medium. Halve and pit peaches; prick skins with a fork. In a bowl, stir together butter and light-brown sugar; brush butter mixture over peach halves, coating entirely.
-
Make the raspberry sauce: In a bowl, toss raspberries with sugar; let sit 5 minutes. Pass through a sieve into another bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids.
-
Grill peaches on both sides until fruit is tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm, topped with ice cream and drizzled with raspberry sauce.
Just grilled the peaches in the butter/brown sugar coating; omitted the raspberry sauce. I topped the peaches with home-made whipped cream instead. Delicious! Summer doesn't get any better than this!
