Lavender Honey Glazed Grilled Peaches

Ingredients

4 Peaches

1 Cup Honey

2 bunches of lavender leaves

1/2 oz. Gran Mariner or Orange Liquor

Juice of 1/2 Lemon

Slivered Almonds

Raspberries for Garnish

1 Cup Vanilla Yogurt

Olive Oil

Cinnamon Stick

Directions

1. Preheat grill to high heat

2. Place honey, cinnamon stick, lavender, lemon juice, and liquor in small sauce pan. Cook for approx 20 minutes over low heat, stirring every few minutes

3. Cut peaches in half. Take the round part of the peach half and cut off a small chunk to make a flat platform.  Coat both flat sides with olive oil. Grill on each side over high heat for approx 2 minutes, enough to caramelize the fruit and make some good grill marks.

4. Turn the heat of the lavender honey sauce to medium high. Take the peaches off the grill and put them in the lavender honey sauce for two minutes. Take them out and place them on a plate to cool off and rid of excess liquid sauce.

5. Take vanilla yogurt and mix with 1/4 cup of hot lavender honey mixture. Do this by tempering so the cold yogurt will not curdle.

6. To plate, place one peach half with the large flat side down on the plate. The rounded edge should be facing up. Take another peach half with the small flat side down and place on top of other peach. Fill the inside peach half cup with toasted slivered almonds and a couple of raspberries. Drizzle yogurt over mixture over the peaches and garnish with a few drops of the honey sauce, some lavender leaves, and a few raspberries.
