Grilled Stone Fruit

*courtesy of epicurious.com

I have been all about the grill lately. I haven't tried this yet, but it sounds yummy. I bet you could stick it under the broiler if you don't have a grill.

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 peaches, pitted and halved
2 nectarines, pitted and halved
2 plums, pitted and halved
1 tablespoon sugar
1 bunch fresh mint, for garnish
Vanilla ice cream (optional), for serving

1. Preheat a well-oiled grill to medium.

2. Combine the melted butter and vanilla; lightly brush it over the cut sides of the fruit. Place fruit on a plate and sprinkle lightly with the sugar.

3. Place the fruit, cut-side down, on the grill for exactly 4 minutes. Carefully remove to a serving platter with a spatula and arrange decoratively. Garnish with a big bunch of mint in the center of the platter and serve with ice cream, if desired.

** Notes:
Also makes a delicious breakfast when served with yogurt and honey.
To prevent the fruits from sticking, cook them on a well-oiled grill.

Yum. I am going to try this recipe this weekend...and if it's raining, I'll broil the fruit in my new toaster/convection oven.
