Grilled Cinnamon Sugar Peaches

Grilled cinnamon sugar peaches are a deliciously easy and unique dessert that combines the natural sweetness of ripe peaches with the rich, smoky flavor from the grill. The warm cinnamon sugar coating gives the peaches a caramelized, crispy exterior while the inside remains juicy and tender. This dessert is a perfect way to enjoy summer’s fresh produce and is ideal for outdoor barbecues, picnics, or a casual weeknight treat.

To prepare, start by halving ripe peaches and removing the pits. For best results, choose peaches that are firm but ripe, this ensures they won’t fall apart while grilling. Brush the cut sides lightly with melted butter or olive oil, which will help the cinnamon sugar adhere to the fruit and create that golden caramelized crust.

In a small bowl, mix together sugar and ground cinnamon, adjusting the ratio depending on how sweet or spicy you want the flavor to be. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar generously over the cut sides of the peaches, making sure they are well-coated.

Preheat your grill to medium heat, and place the peach halves cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until the peaches are tender and grill marks are visible. The heat from the grill enhances the natural sugars in the fruit, giving it a delightful smokiness while the cinnamon sugar creates a slightly crispy, caramelized crust.

Once the peaches are done, serve them warm, and for an extra indulgent touch, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of honey. Fresh mint leaves or a dusting of powdered sugar can add a beautiful finishing touch to this summery dessert.

Grilled cinnamon sugar peaches are the perfect balance of sweet, smoky, and spiced, making them a simple yet impressive dessert for any summer occasion.
