GRILLED PEACH CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Stir together the flour, oats, pecans, sugar, salt and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add half the vanilla bean seeds and all the cubed butter. Use your hands, a fork or a pastry cutter to blend the butter into the dry mixture until it is evenly combined in small clumps and crumbles. Spread the mixture on the lined baking sheet and bake until the clumps are golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside until ready to use, or crumble and store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Meanwhile, arrange the peaches cut-side up on a baking sheet or plate. Mix the remaining vanilla bean seeds with the olive oil in a small bowl. Brush the peaches with the mixture.
• Add the peaches cut-side down to the grill. Cook, without flipping, until the peaches are charred on the cut side, but not mush, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peaches to a serving dish. Top with the crumble. Serve each peach with a scoop of ice cream and some extra crumble.

BALTIMORE PEACH CAKE

Steps:

• Combine sugar and yeast in a bowl. Pour in milk, butter, and egg. Whisk together until sugar is dissolved. Stir in flour, a portion at a time, until mostly moistened, adding more if dough is too wet. Add salt and stir until a soft, slightly sticky dough comes together.
• Cover dough with a damp towel and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1/2 tablespoon butter. Split peaches in half along the seam and slice halves into quarters, then eighths.
• Transfer dough into the buttered baking dish. Use a spatula to spread dough out to the corners of the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise once more until roughly doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Arrange peach slices onto the dough, pressing them in lightly. Drizzle remaining butter on top. Sprinkle Demerara sugar over peaches.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake, not through a peach, comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Heat apricot preserves up with a splash of water and brush glaze over the top of the cake. Let cool to room temperature before slicing.

PERFECT PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Make the pie dough. Using your fingertips or the pulse function of a food processor, blend together the flour, butter and salt until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. There should be pebbles of butter throughout the mixture.
• Add egg yolk and vinegar to 1/4 cup ice water, and stir to combine. Drizzle 4 tablespoons of this mixture over the dough, and gently stir or pulse to combine. Gather a golf-ball-size bit of dough, and squeeze to combine. If it does not hold together, add a little more of the liquid, and stir or pulse, then check again. Repeat as necessary.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and gather together into a rough ball. Divide the ball in half with a knife or a pastry scraper, then divide each portion in half again, and again, to create 8 portions. Using the heel of your hand, flatten each portion of dough once or twice to expand the pebbles of butter, then gather the dough together again in one ball. Divide this ball in half.
• Flatten each ball into a 5- or 6-inch disc, one slightly larger than the other. Wrap the discs in plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for at least 60 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425. Make the pie filling: Combine sliced peaches, lemon juice, sugar and flour in a large bowl, and gently mix to combine. Set aside.
• Take the larger of the pastry discs out of the refrigerator, roll it out on a lightly floured surface and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Add the peaches. Sprinkle them with the ground nutmeg.
• Roll out second disc of pastry. Place on top of filling. Wet edges of the bottom pastry disc with some cold water. Trim pastry, pinch bottom and top edges together and cut a few slits to allow steam to escape from the pie. Brush the egg white on the top, particularly around the edges, and sprinkle with a pinch of granulated sugar.
• Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375. Cook until peaches bubble and pastry is golden, approximately 45 minutes to an hour.

GRILLED PEACH CRUMBLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Prep. Combine the butter, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Blend the ingredients with a fork to create small crumbles.
• Cut the peaches in half vertically. Twist the halves and remove the pits. Cut approximately 1/8 inch/3.2 mm off of the rounded side of each peach half so that the peaches can sit flat, pit side up, on the grill.
• Fire up. Prepare a grill for indirect cooking by placing a chimney full of pre-heated charcoal briquets on one side of the grill's charcoal grate in order to create direct and indirect cooking zones. Add 2 to 3 chunks of your favorite smoking wood to the charcoal for flavor. Adjust the grill vents to bring the temperature to about 325°F/162.8°C. On a gas grill, adjust the temperature knobs so that one half of the grill is off and the other half is heated enough to maintain a temperature of approximately 325°F/162.8°C.
• Cook. Place the halved peaches, pit side down, on the hot side of the grill. Grill the peaches until lightly charred, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the peaches from the grill.
• Spread on the crumble. Top the pit side of the peaches generously with the crumble mixture, spreading the crumble all the way to the edges. Set the peaches, topping side up, on the cooler side of the grill as far from the heat source as possible. Cover the grill and allow the peaches to cook until the crumble mixture is golden brown, approximately 15 minutes.
• Serve. Plate the peaches and top with whipped cream. Serve immediately.
