Grilled Cinnamon Peaches With Pecans Ice Cream Recipe By Tasty Food

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.

CINNAMON-GRILLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Rinse the peaches and blot them dry with paper towels. Cut each peach in half and discard the pit. Then, cut each peach into quarters. Using a pointed chopstick or metal skewer, make a starter hole in the center of each peach quarter, working from the pit side to the skin side. Skewer 2 peach quarters on each cinnamon stick, placing a mint leaf between the 2 quarters.
• Combine the butter, brown sugar, rum, cinnamon, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Let the glaze boil until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
• Prepare and preheat the grill to high. Brush and oil the grate. Next, place the skewered peaches on the hot grate and grill until nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side, basting with the rum and butter glaze. Spoon any remaining glaze over the grilled peaches and serve at once. Peach or vanilla ice cream makes a great accompaniment.

CINNAMON PECAN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the egg yolks and brown sugar until thick and pale brown. In a saucepan combine the milk and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. Stir 1/2 cup of the milk into the egg mixture, then whisk the eggs into the pan of milk. Set aside to cool. Pass the custard mixture through a medium strainer. Add the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, salt and crema. Whisk well and refrigerate until cold.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and toast until golden brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool and then roughly chop. Pour the chilled custard mixture into your ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fold in the cooled toasted pecans. Store in the freezer.

GRILLED PEACHES AND CREAM

Steps:

• Halve and pit 8 peaches and toss with 2 tablespoons each light brown sugar and melted butter. Grill over medium-high heat until marked, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Whisk 2/3 cup each sour cream and cold heavy cream with 1/3 cup brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Dollop the whipped cream on the peaches and top with candied pecans.

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.
