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.

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.

I have only cooked this once and will, I know be cooking more and more. My 15 year old granddaughter said she wanted this instead of birthday cake on her family birthday dinner. I have never tasted such a wonderful sauce or glaze. Did exactly as the recipe called for except reduced the lemon to 1/2 of what called for. It turned out perfectly. Thanks to someone who reviewed and warned about the lemon. Other than that, every thing was perfect. We had fresh pineapple sticks and peaches ( this is better than pineapple upside down cake. I am not a fan of ice cream unless we do it this way. You must try.
