Best Grilled Peaches With Brandy Sauce Recipes

SIMPLEST GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Heat a gas grill to medium. If you are cooking on a charcoal grill, wait until the fire has died down to medium to low heat.
• Cut the peaches along their seams, all the way around, and twist their halves off their pits. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with olive oil and grill, cut side down, until the fruit has developed grill marks and started to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Brush the tops with oil, turn over and move to the side of the grill to continue cooking over indirect heat, another 4 to 5 minutes. You can add flavor by brushing them with maple syrup and bourbon, or molasses and butter. But if they are perfect peaches, they shouldn't need anything at all.

BRANDY BAKED PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Arrange peaches cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.
• Put butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat, add almonds, and heat together until butter melts, about 2 minutes. Stir honey, brown sugar, and cinnamon into the melted butter; bring to a simmer and add brandy and salt. Stir to dissolve the salt, remove saucepan from heat, and add vanilla extract; pour the mixture over the peaches.
• Bake peaches in preheated oven until the peaches are cooked through, about 30 minutes.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH MASCARPONE CHEESE

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Lightly brush the grill pan or rack with oil. Place the peaches on the grill pan and do not move the peaches, otherwise you will not have those great grill marks. It takes about 2 to 3 minutes per side to get those grill marks. Grill the peaches until the grill marks are formed, slightly softened and heated through, about 5 to 6 minutes total.
• Meanwhile, stir the sugar, brandy, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to blend. Set the brandy mixture aside.
• As the peaches are ready, remove them from the grill and place them in a shallow baking dish. Top them with the brandy mixture, and toss to coat. Set aside for 15 minutes and allow to marinate, tossing occasionally.
• Meanwhile, stir the mascarpone and vanilla in a small bowl to blend.
• Divide the grilled peach mixture equally among 6 coupe dishes. Pour the wine over the peaches. Dollop the mascarpone mixture atop the peaches, and serve.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH CARAMELIZED BRANDY PECAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan. Add the pecans and sauté over medium heat for about 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly toasted and fragrant.
• Add the agave nectar, cream, brandy, amaretto (if using), and nutmeg. Stir and simmer until just slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. If necessary, the sauce can be reheated prior to serving.
• To grill the peaches, preheat the grill or grill pan. Make sure your grill is very clean and hot. Mix the butter and cinnamon together in a bowl. Brush each peach half on both sides with a bit of the melted butter mixture. Grill the peaches with cut-side down first, until slightly scorched by the grill on each side. Do not overcook or they will be mushy.
• To serve, place 2 peach halves on each serving plate and spoon some hot pecan sauce over them. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH CINNAMON SUGAR BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl add the butter and stir until smooth. Add the cinnamon sugar, granulated sugar and salt and mix until combined.
• Heat grill to high. Brush peaches with oil and grill until golden brown and just cooked through. Top each with a few teaspoons of the butter and garnish with mint leaves.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH WINE SYRUP TWO WAYS

Steps:

• For the wine syrup: Combine the wine, peach nectar, brandy, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons honey, cinnamon sticks and vanilla bean in a large high-sided saute pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Strain.
• For the peaches: Preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with butter and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and some cinnamon. Grill cut-side down and cook until slightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes
• For the peach chutney: Coarsely chop the peaches and toss with another pinch cinnamon, a few tablespoons of the wine syrup, some torn mint leaves, a splash of canola oil and salt and pepper. Goes great with pork.
• For the grilled peach dessert: Place the peaches cut-side up on a platter. Spoon some creme fraiche in the center of each, drizzle over some wine syrup, a bit of honey and garnish with mint leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Place the foil packet onto the preheated grill, and cook for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through. Carefully open the packet, and serve.

BRANDIED PEACHES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Using the tip of a paring knife, make a shallow "X" in the bottom of each peach. Add the peaches, one at a time, to the boiling water and cook for 1 minute. Remove the peach from the water and plunge into a bowl of ice water. Repeat with the remaining peaches. Peel off the skins, then pit the fruit and quarter the flesh.
• In another large pot, combine 3 cups water and the sugar and bring to a boil. Add the peaches and simmer until just soft.
• Have the jars, bands and new lids scalded and ready. (To scald, dip the jars and rims in boiling water. You don't need to sterilize the jars, as you will be processing them for more than 10 minutes.) Simmer the lids in hot water to soften the rubberized flange. Gently pack the peaches into the jars.
• Boil the leftover syrup until it thickens slightly, then spoon it over the fruit, filling the jars ¾ full. Use a butter knife to release any air bubbles caught in the jars. Pour in enough brandy to fill the jars, leaving ¼ inch of headroom. Wipe the rims, cover with the lids and screw on the bands fingertip-tight. Place the jars on a rack in a big pot and cover with 2 to 3 inches of water. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to medium and gently boil for 20 minutes. Remove the cover and then, after about 5 minutes, remove the jars. Allow them to cool, untouched, for 4 to 6 hours. Check the seals and store in a cool, dark place for up to a year. Refrigerate after opening.
