Grilled Peaches with Cashew Vanilla Drizzle

During each season it’s fun to look forward to the produce it brings. Summer is perfect for peaches and perfect for grilling. So let’s have a little fun and combine the two! Grilled peaches are the simplest dessert you never knew you needed. Add a bit of cashew vanilla drizzle and people will be begging you to make this over and over again.

Grilled Peaches with Cashew Vanilla Drizzle

Grilling peaches couldn’t be easier. It’s as simple as preheating your grill to 350 and slicing some peaches in half. The natural sugars caramelize and give the beautiful grill marks and your whole backyard will smell like warm peach cobbler.

Peaches and cream are an obvious route to go with the warm, grilled peaches! The slight nuttiness of the cashew base whipped up with a little powdered sugar and vanilla is going to be your new go-to frosting! Lightly drizzled over the peaches it’s a match made in heaven. It’s such a nostalgic combination, but made lighter and dairy free using JOI!

Feeling extra indulgent? Build a grilled peach sudae! Top your grilled peach with dairy-free ice cream, vegan whipped cream and granola or pieces of waffle cone for some crunch.

Directions

Preheat your gas grill or charcoal grill to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Brush the grill grates with a neutral oil once the grill is hot, taking care not to burn yourself. Or, instead, brush the cut side of the peaches with oil prior to placing them cut side down on the grill grates.
Place your sliced peaches skin side up and let cook for about 5 minutes. Once you start to smell the warm peaches in the air, they are done!
In a small mixing bowl whisk together the Cashew JOI and 1 tablespoon of water until mostly combined.
Whisk in powdered sugar until thick and creamy.
Add vanilla and combine.
Drizzle the Cashew Vanilla Cream over the peaches.
Garnish with fresh mint and crushed ice cream cone or granola for some crunch!
To make it into a sundae, top with ice cream and whipped cream and crunchy toppings.

You’ve decided to make the switch to plant milk. Whether better health is the goal, the traditional stuff doesn’t really get along with your body, or you just like the taste, it probably hasn’t taken you long to figure out you’ve got a lot more decisions ahead of you to find your plant milk. JOI is here to make that decision a bit easier for you.

The Skinny Truth About Fats

With all the “low-fat” and “fat-free” products on the market, it’s not a surprise that most people have a negative association with fats—whether it’s about gaining weight, raising cholesterol levels, increasing risk for heart disease... talk about a bad reputation. All of which is true, but only to a certain extent. The fat we eat, known as dietary fat, is one of three essential macronutrients in a diet. Carbohydrates, proteins and fats are the three musketeers of nutrition and must stay together through all your meals, not one can be excluded from the dinner party... (we're looking at you, keto diet).
