Honey and Lavender Glazed Fruit
Pairings with Andrea : Episode FLPWA-104L

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients:

1/2-cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2-cup honey
1 small bunch lavender
1 large ripe pineapple, peeled, quartered, cored and cut into half-inch-thick wedges
3 slightly under-ripe bananas, peeled and sliced in half lengthwise
3 ripe but firm peaches, peeled, halved, pitted
1 pint vanilla ice cream, optional

Instructions:

  1. Combine butter, honey and lavender in a small saucepan and heat, whisking occasionally, until butter is melted and mixture is just coming to a simmer.
  2. Remove from heat and let sit in pan for 30 minutes.
  3. Remove lavender and discard. Pour syrup through a fine strainer and into a bowl or measuring cup to remove any stray lavender leaves.
  4. Preheat gas grill to medium and lightly oil grate.
  5. Place all fruits on a rimmed baking sheet and brush with honey glaze.
  6. Grill until fruit is heated through, slightly tender and caramelized — about four minutes total for bananas, six for pineapple and peaches. As the fruits cook, brush them once or twice with additional glaze and turn once.
  7. Serve immediately with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
