Grilled Peaches With Crème Fraîche Recipes

GRILLED PEACHES AND CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for medium-high heat.
• Brush peaches with a light coating of oil. Place pit side down onto the grill. Grill for 5 minutes, or until the surfaces have nice grill marks. Turn the peaches over, and drizzle with a bit of honey. Place a dollop of the cream cheese spread in the place where the pit was. Grill for 2 to 3 more minutes, or until the filling is warm. Serve immediately.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH AMARETTI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat a grill with a single layer of charcoal. When the coals are hot, brush the grill with a little oil to make sure the peaches don't stick. Place the peaches, cut side down, on the grill and cook for a few minutes, until they're slightly charred.
• Place the peaches in an oven-proof dish, sprinkle each half with a little vanilla sugar. Combine the rum and amaretto and drizzle 1/2 of it on the peaches. Bake the peaches for about 10 minutes, until they're very tender. Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold with crumbled amaretti cookies on top or with the cookies on the side. I like to serve them with a dollop of creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
• Vanilla Sugar:
• Find a jar tall enough to hold 2 vanilla beans. Fill the bottle with sugar and cover tightly. Store on a pantry shelf. After about 3 months you will have a wonderful ingredient for cooking and baking. Keep adding vanilla beans and sugar to the jar and you will have it for years.

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with butter and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and some cinnamon. Grill cut-side down and cook until slightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes
• For the peach chutney: Coarsely chop the peaches and toss with another pinch cinnamon, a few tablespoons of the wine syrup, some torn mint leaves, a splash of canola oil and salt and pepper. Goes great with pork.
