Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer dessert featuring smoky grilled apricots topped with creamy burrata cheese and a sweet honey drizzle, perfect for outdoor dinners or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 fresh apricots, ripe but firm, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces creamy burrata cheese, fresh and chilled
  • 2 tablespoons raw or wildflower honey
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
  • Fresh thyme or mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, a pinch (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 375°F).
  2. Rinse and dry the apricots, then slice them in half and remove the pits.
  3. Brush the cut sides of the apricots lightly with extra-virgin olive oil.
  4. Place apricots cut-side down on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes without moving to get caramelized grill marks.
  5. Flip apricots carefully using tongs and grill for another 2-3 minutes until tender but not mushy.
  6. Arrange the warm apricot halves on a serving platter, cut side up.
  7. Tear or slice the burrata into chunks and scatter over the grilled apricots.
  8. Drizzle honey generously over the apricots and burrata.
  9. Garnish with fresh thyme or mint leaves and a light sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper if desired.
  10. Serve immediately, preferably warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving for extra creaminess. Avoid over-grilling apricots to keep them tender but intact. Brush apricots with olive oil to prevent sticking and promote caramelization. Use medium-high heat for best grill marks without burning.
