Notes

  • Choose freestone peaches. This means you can easily remove the pit when you cut the peaches in half.
  • If you are having trouble removing the pit, use a melon baller to scoop it out.
  • Choose slightly firm peaches. Juicy peaches have more sugar which means they will be prone to burning on the grill or in the air fryer.
  • Grill peach halves rather than slices so they don’t fall through the grates on the grill.
  • You may need to adjust the cooking size depending on the size of your peaches.
  • If you skip the ice cream, there is just 1 Blue Plan SmartPoint in a serving of this.
