Photo: Grilled Fruit with Bourbon Glaze Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 2 cups light brown sugar, packed firmly
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1/2 cup water
- Assorted fruit cut in 1/2 (peaches or plums)
Directions
Put the bourbon into a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring it to a boil. Boil for 1 minute to burn off the alcohol. Add the butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, and water. Bring to a boil whisking until all the sugar is dissolved. Simmer for 5 minutes. Let cool to thicken. Toss fruit with the glaze to coat or brush glaze over fruit with a pastry brush. Place fruit on the grill and turn once when light grill marks appear. Serve with ice cream and drizzle the remaining glaze over the fruit.

Actually, I used this peach/bourbon glaze to put between and on top of a yellow cake, with whipped cream icing. I had to add a slurry of corn starch to thicken it and used canned peaches. I also substituted the peach juice for the water. I wanted to eat it out of the pan. Sorry - I did eat it out of the pan. Delicious!

Amazingly easy. I added lots of thyme and served it over salmon.

Easy and delicious. Not sure I would consider this a 'light' summer dessert with all the butter and sugar but definately great flavor. I made half of a recipe since it was only for me. The recipe only mentions 2 pcs fruit per person but not the quantity the glaze with accomodate overall. I imagine about 6 - 8 peaches unless you want a good amount to drizzle over ice cream. I had only coconut ice cream in my freezer and it was amazing with the peaches. I used 1/2 lemon since it was what I had on hand and it was fine. Definately a keeper and will make again trying with firm bananas, pineaplles slices and nectarines.
