I will begin the list with the grilled apple and cinnamon, the 2 main ingredients for this dessert. Both components are readily available in markets throughout the year. Besides, if your body needs extra vitamin G, well, they are the perfect and healthy pair for you.

When the weather becomes cold in the fall and winter, this dessert is a good choice. The sweetness of grilled apple and the mild spice of cinnamon make you feel warmer. A scoop of vanilla ice cream, on the other hand, is perfectly acceptable if you want to add a little chill to the meal.

You can choose your favorite apple variety to grill, but I recommend you to choose Pink Lady, Fuji, Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Pinata. These kinds are better for grilling.

Another delicious apple-grilled dessert recipe for you that is full of nutrients. Apples will be mixed with other ingredients like oats, sugar, flour… and cooked in the skillet, but if you are a camping lover, foil is also a good option to wrap them before throwing them in the grill.

To avoid overcooking, keep an eye on the temperature. It only takes about 20 minutes to cook, or until the apples are soft and the crumble has turned golden brown.

Very easy, isn’t it?

3. Bloomin’ Grilled Apple

Why bloomin’? Because you can feel the bloom and healthy glow from this dessert appearance.

Apples will be filled with maple caramel sauce and pecans. After grilling them, your apples can be served with ice cream and nuts.

I have to admit, they both look pretty and taste delicious as well. So if you want to create a piece of art, you definitely should try bloomin’ grilled apple dessert.

Marshmallows, bread, and bananas all seem like wonderful camping snacks. All you have to do is thread the ingredients onto skewers and grill them. Finally, provide a pot of hot fondue for them to dip in.

Nothing is complicated, as you can see from the recipe.

I will start my collection of grilled peaches desserts with the most classic one, grilled peaches. Imagine taking a mouthful of luscious grilled peaches on a hot summer day, and you will see how delicious they are.

Like apples, they are basically prepared and thrown on the grill until they have caramelized color. They are then served with cinnamon, honey, and ice cream.

14. Grilled Peach with Cinnamon, Ricotta, and Honey

Now, how about a little upgrade for peaches with Ricotta cheese?

A cheesy and creamy butter and Ricotta combined grilled apricot brings the refreshing and brightness of summer. You will not resist the taste of them for sure.

Moreover, grilled peaches have a sweeter flavor and softer texture. They are a perfect dessert that you can do outdoors or indoors.

15. Grilled Peach with Brioche and Coconut Yogurt

Brioche is a very butter-rich bread. Since they are rich in butter and eggs, they are softer than other bread, which makes them more special and tasty. Their origin is French, the symbolic country of making bread.

Here, I present to you the combination of peach and brioche that makes you crave. It might take a longer time than the other grilled dessert (up to 1 hour), yet worth your effort.

You can finish them with caramel, syrup, ice cream, or some thyme to decorate.

16. Blackout Peach Bread Pudding

With this recipe, you can use your leftover bread or sandwich for cooking with grilled peaches.

Mix peaches with these bread cubes with sugar, then grill them in disposable aluminum muffin cups with egg mixture. And voila! Now you have small cups of grilled peaches bread pudding that are so rich and creamy.

17. Grilled Peaches with Bourbon Brown Butter Sauce

Time to get drunk with this dessert. I am just kidding. It only makes you tipsy. I am kidding again.

The bourbon in this dish will not make you drunk, only make you overwhelmed by their overall bursting flavor.

Indeed, caramel-color grilled peaches, butter sauce, and a little bit of bourbon create a fine dessert with a distinctive flavor, making you feel better on a hot summer day.
