A simple yet elegant summer dessert featuring smoky grilled peaches topped with creamy honey mascarpone and crunchy pistachios. Ready in under 20 minutes, this recipe is perfect for spontaneous dinners or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1 cup (about 8 oz) full-fat mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1/3 cup shelled and roughly chopped pistachios, toasted
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, for brushing peaches
  • Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to around 400°F (200°C), about 10 minutes.
  2. Rinse and dry the peaches. Slice in half and remove pits. Brush cut sides lightly with olive oil.
  3. Toast pistachios in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Set aside to cool.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together mascarpone, honey, and lemon zest until smooth and creamy. Chill until ready to serve.
  5. Place peaches cut side down on the hot grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes without moving until grill marks form and fruit softens.
  6. Flip peaches and grill for another 2-3 minutes to warm through.
  7. Transfer grilled peaches to serving plates, cut side up. Spoon generous dollops of honey mascarpone over each half.
  8. Sprinkle toasted pistachios on top. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Drizzle extra honey over everything before serving.

Notes

Use firm peaches to hold shape on the grill. Brush peaches lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking. Keep grill hot for good caramelization. Toast pistachios carefully to avoid bitterness. Mascarpone can be loosened with a splash of cream or milk if too thick. For nut-free version, substitute pistachios with toasted coconut flakes. Can use broiler if no grill is available but watch carefully to avoid burning.
