- Serving Dishes1.2
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- 2 ripe peaches cored and sliced
- 1/2 ripe pineapple cored and sliced
- 1.5 qt vanilla or honey graham ice cream
- 1 cup sweetened whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat an outdoor grill or stove-top grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Place the butter in a heat-safe ramekin or small skillet and set on the hot grill. Cook, stirring often, until the butter has browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Note: If making this indoors with a stove-top grill pan, just brown the butter in a skillet on the stove over low heat. Remove and allow to cool slightly.
- To make the streusel, in a medium bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Add 4 tablespoons of the browned butter and stir until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the oats and nuts, if using. Cut a large piece of aluminum foil, fold it in half and then crimp the edges up to create a make-shift dish. Transfer the streusel to the foil and spread out evenly. Set aside.
- Brush the sliced peaches and pineapple on both sides with the remaining browned butter, saving some for when the fruit finishes cooking.
- Place the foil with the streusel on one side of the hot grill. On the other side, arrange the fruit in a single layer. Cook until the fruit develops grill marks and softens slightly, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Cook the streusel, stirring often, until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the fruit and streusel onto a baking sheet or platter. Brush the fruit with the remaining browned butter, pour the streusel into a dish and set both aside to cool slightly. Once cooled, slice the fruit into large chunks.
- To assemble the sundaes, scoop the ice cream into individual serving dishes. Top each with fruit, whipped cream and streusel. Serve immediately and enjoy!
