Most people don't think about cooking fruit, let alone grilling fruit. But the intense heat of the grill, whether gas or charcoal, will add fantastic flavor to any fruit. The sugars in the fruit will caramelize over the fire, picking up the grill flavor and make any fruit ready to eat in minutes, especially topped with a scope of ice cream. Make sure your grill is good and hot and your cooking grates clean then take a look over these grilled fruit recipes to find your next dessert.
