Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer recipe featuring caramelized grilled peaches paired with creamy burrata cheese and a tangy balsamic glaze, perfect for entertaining or a light meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces (225g) burrata cheese, room temperature
  • ½ cup (120ml) balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • A handful fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Pour ½ cup (120ml) of balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened into a syrupy glaze. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Wash and dry peaches. Cut each peach in half and remove the pit. Brush cut sides lightly with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
  3. Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Place peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side until grill marks appear and peaches soften but hold shape. Flip carefully.
  5. Arrange grilled peaches cut side up on a serving platter. Tear burrata into bite-sized pieces and scatter over peaches.
  6. Drizzle balsamic glaze generously on top. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
  7. Scatter chopped basil leaves and drizzle honey or maple syrup if desired.
  8. Serve immediately while peaches are warm and burrata is creamy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving for creamier texture. Watch balsamic vinegar closely when reducing to avoid burning. Use ripe but firm peaches to prevent falling apart on the grill. For dairy-free option, substitute burrata with vegan cream cheese or cashew cream.
