How to prepare grilled peaches
Prepare the peaches: Cut peaches in half and brush with coconut oil.
Grill: Grease the pan with half a tablespoon of coconut oil and heat over high heat. Place the peaches on the pan and grill them for 4-5 minutes, turn them over and grill them for the same amount of time on the other side.
Prepare the ice cream: Combine the vanilla extract, frozen bananas, and coconut milk in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Serve with peaches and sprinkle chopped walnuts on top.
Starting and storage instructions:
To move forward: It’s best to make grilled peaches fresh, but the banana ice cream can be made ahead of time. Keep it frozen until you need it. Let it sit on the counter for 15 minutes to soften enough to pick up, and put the leftovers back in the freezer for later.
To store: If you have leftovers, scoop them into a freezer-safe container and freeze them. The peach, sadly, won’t be warm anymore, but you’ll still be able to enjoy your now-frozen dessert when you’re ready (it’ll be just as delicious).
