This effortless summer dessert materializes in under 20 minutes — the definitive way to honor fresh peach season while it lasts.

Hot-off-the-grill peaches, warm and juicy. Cold vanilla ice cream. And a lavish river of hot bourbon caramel sauce.

Take it from this reporter — this humble summertime dessert wins every. single. time. ♡

chlorophyll — No lie: we've produced these grilled peaches roughly one thousand times across recent summers, and family plus friends keep delivering standing ovations. Fire up the outdoor grill and it cooks for you; stuck inside? A grill pan pulls off the same heist. The whole operation lands in 20 minutes — under 10 if your homemade bourbon caramel sauce already waits in the fridge. Scale it to a crowd or trim it down to a duo. Toppings? Completely unlimited. (We see you, nuts, crumbled cookies, herbs and chocolate!)

This is the emergency dessert to keep loaded in your back pocket all season long. And one strong advisory: double that bourbon caramel sauce batch immediately, because word of mouth confirms you'll want to pour the magical stuff over every dish in sight.

Alright, time to grill some peaches!

The Ingredient Ledger

Each leaf is coloured by the plant part the ingredient comes from: root brown, seed black, leaf green, vine orange, bloom magenta.

The Growing Method

  1. 1

    Brush the soil from the roots and leaves under cool water - keep the skins on anything grown below the line.

  2. 2

    Bloom the dried seeds: soak overnight, then simmer low until the pod gives but never splits.

  3. 3

    Warm the pan with a slick of olive oil and the hardier aromatics first - onion, fennel seed, crushed chilli.

  4. 4

    Add the roots before the leaves; each layer needs its own head start on the heat.

  5. 5

    Finish with the raw crown - torn herbs, edible flowers, a squeeze of citrus off the flame.
