I am off to my family’s cabin for the rest of the weekend with peaches in hand to soak up this last bit of summer we have. I hope everyone is having a fun and safe Labor Day weekend!
- 4 peaches, halved and pits removed
- 2 tbsp grass fed butter, melted
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 4 tbsp maple syrup
- 4 tbsp chopped pecans
- Prepare your grill to a medium heat. You should be able to hold your hand over the coals for 3-4 seconds.
- With a brush coat each peach half on both sides with the melted better. Use all of the butter and be sure to coat the cut sides well.
- Place the peaches on the grill grate cut side down and let cook for 5-10 minutes or until grill marks are made. While the peaches cook, combine the cinnamon, maple syrup and pecans in a small bowl and mix well. Set maple pecan mixture aside.
- Flip the peaches and evenly spoon the maple pecan mixture into each peach half. Let cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the peaches are fork tender.
- Enjoy!
