These grilled peaches with coconut whipped cream are a great healthier dessert option. Fresh peaches are gilled with a little coconut sugar, cinnamon and ground ginger, then topped with a homemade coconut whipped cream.
If you’ve never grilled peaches before, then stop what you’re doing and try out this recipe because you’re certainly missing out!
What makes these peaches so irresistible is the caramelization of the sugar and cinnamon that occurs as the peaches heat up. Top that with the nice cool, creamy and airy whipped cream, it’s the perfect combination!
