If you love peaches you will love my easy recipe for Grilled Peaches with Caramel Sauce and homemade whipped cream. This delicious summertime recipe comes together in just 20 minutes.

Two white plates stacked topped with grilled peaches and cream with peaches in background.

Over a decade ago my husband I visited Lane Southern Orchards in Georgia. While visiting I picked up two massive boxed filled with peaches to do some recipe developing and of course give as gifts to family and friends. The week we got home from Georgia I went a little peach crazy… incorporating peaches into every meal that week. By Friday my husband who is the worlds largest peach fan was sick and tired of peaches. Me on the other hand–I couldn’t get enough of them!

I made these Caramel peaches one evening for dessert. Such a simple recipe, yet delicious! Even the least experienced cook could make these grilled peaches. I love to make fresh whipped cream; however, you can simplify it and use store bought. I also almost always use a store bought caramel sauce instead of homemade caramel sauce. But if I have the homemade on hand– I’ll use it!

Directions

Preheat your grill to high heat. While the grill is pre-heating wash peaches and cut them in half (removing the pits from the peach center).

Four peaches with grill marks on grill grates with fire underneath them.

Once grill has reached to temperature (around 500 degrees) place peaches flesh (flat) side down on the grill and cook for 5-10 minutes until grill marks have formed on peaches. Remove peaches from the grill and set aside.

How to Make Homemade Whipped Cream

Three photos of showing the process how to make whipped cream in a yellow KitchenAid stand mixer.

In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Pour the heavy whipping cream and beat on medium-low or until the cream starts to slightly thicken. Then add 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar and slowly bring the speed to high.

Whip in mixer for 2-3 minutes or until cream is thick (when the whisk is removed from the bowl the cream should stick right to the whisk).

FAQs

How many people does this grilled peach dessert feed?

I wrote the recipe to split the peaches in half to serve 4 adults. However, you can serve one peach half per person and serve 8. Totally up to you.

Do peaches need to be ripe to grill?

Yes, peaches should be ripe when you grill but still firm. A soft over ripe peach will just fall apart on the grill.

How do you cut a peach for grilling?

Cut the peach in half and carefully remove the pit. Then place the flat side down on the grill. Make sure your grill is screaming hot to get those beautiful grill marks.
