Grilled peaches on mascarpone cream is a juicy fruity dessert that offers a fusion of caramelized sweetness and creamy richness that makes this simple dessert a delightful finish of a summer meal.
Make the Mascarpone cream by mixing Greek yogurt with honey and vanilla extract. Once that is well mixed, add the Mascarpone cheese. It will be a thick cream. (NOTE 1). Place the Mascarpone cream in the fridge until you're ready to serve the dish.
Wash and dry the peaches. Cut them in half and cut the halves in 3-4 wedges. (NOTE 2). Brush both sides of the wedges with oil.
Heat the grill or a grill pan and place the peach slices on the grill for 4-5 minutes or until you see grill marks. A give-away is that the peaches start releasing their juices. Turn the peaches onto the other side and grill an additional 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the grilled peach slices to a platter to stop the cooking process. It is also easier for plating.
Take the Mascarpone Cream out of the fridge and divide over 2 plates or wide bowls. Place the peach slices on top of that cream.
Garnish with tarragon for a finishing touch. Serve immediately.
ENJOY!
Notes
If you find the Mascarpone cream too thick, you can make it thinner by adding a little bit of milk. Don't make it too thin as the grilled peaches are very juicy, so a thick cream adds more texture and pleasure than a thin cream.
You don't have to cut the peach halves in slices. You can also grill peach halves. It may take a little longer to grill as you only grill them on one side. Please leave the skin on the peaches. It keeps the slices together, and the skin of a peach is not very thick, so easy to chew.
