If you’re looking for the perfect end-of-summer treat, then you’ve come to the right place. This grilled peaches with banana ice cream recipe makes for the perfect combination of sweet and tangy. The grilled peaches are perfectly warm and sweet while the pureed banana lends a creaminess that is unmatched in flavor and texture. The best part about this dessert is that it’s completely dairy and refined sugar free, meaning it’s one tasty treat that you’ll never have to feel guilty about enjoying.
How to Make Grilled Peaches
Prepare the peaches: Cut the peaches in half and brush with coconut oil.
Grill: Grease the grill pan with half a tablespoon of coconut oil and heat on high. Place the peaches on the pan and grill for four to five minutes, flip and grill for the same amount of time on the other side.
Make the ice cream: Combine the vanilla extract, frozen bananas, and coconut milk in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Serve with the peaches and sprinkle chopped walnuts on top.
Make-Ahead and Storing Instructions:
To Make-Ahead: Grilled peaches are best made fresh, but the banana ice cream can be made in advance. Just keep it frozen until you need it. Let it stand on the counter for 15 minutes to soften enough to scoop, and place the leftovers back in the freezer for later.
To Store: If you have leftovers, scoop them into a freezer-safe container and freeze them. The peach will, unfortunately, not be hot anymore, but you can still enjoy your now-frozen dessert when you’re ready (It’ll be just as yummy).
