Following through on a new years resolution

One of the few creative things I can do is cook and bake, and tend to make things up as I go along. Here is my attempt to document my creativity.

Grilled Peaches with Honey Balsamic Sauce


A month ago I was at a BBQ and we had grilled nectarines outside after a BBQ. They were brushed with this sauce and served as below. So here are some grilled peached, made indoors on a grill pan:


Serves 2


1 peach - preferably a large ripe one

approximately 1 ounce (a shot glass worth or so) of honey. eyeball it.

2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon of vanilla

vanilla ice cream

Belgian butter waffle cookies (available at trader joe's)


heat a grill pan on medium high.

in a little bowl, mix the honey, balsamic vinegar, and vanilla together. stir with a fork until fully incorporated. Cut the peach in half down the middle length wise, and gently remove the pit with your fingers. take a brush and brush on the honey balsamic mixture on the cut side of the fruit. drop the heat to medium. Place the fruit, cut side down on the grill pan - they should sizzle - and do not disturb them for a minute. brush the backs with the sauce mixture. Take a spatula or tongs and flip them. brush the cut side up fruit with the sauce again.

Place two cookies on a plate. Top with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Place the grilled peach next to the ice cream. drizzle the ice cream fruit plate with some leftover sauce.
