Daddy Ashley's Grilled Peaches with Mascarpone Cream

Why it's on our list

This irresistible recipe is a staple at Daddy Ashley’s during peach season. Glenn and Drew (our dads) handpick the ripest peaches from the farmer’s market, then grill them to perfection. They serve the warm peaches with a light, fluffy mascarpone cream then finish with flakey sea salt. It’s a delicious, easy-to-make treat that’s perfect for celebrating Dad or Dads and making summer memories together.
