First, stop looking at my bruised basil.
I had a few things around the house that were reaching their death point: peaches, mascarpone and basil. So I decided to make a yummy treat. And let me tell you how good these bad boys were -- after I finished my peach, I stood over the sink and licked my plate clean. Like a dog. I couldn't resist the plate full of melted cheese mixed with the sweetness of the agave nectar and the tiny bit of crunch from the demerara sugar. I am not ashamed to admit that I licked it clean!
1. Preheat your grill to around 400. Cut peaches in half and remove the pit. Grill cut side down for about 5 minutes.
2. While peaches are grilling, mix the cheese and a bit of agave nectar together to sweeten a bit. When peaches are done, scoop about 3 tablespoons of cheese onto each peach half. Drizzle with agave nectar and sprinkle some demerara sugar on the top. Place some basil on each peach.
