Grilled Maple-Butter Apricots with Vanilla Ice Cream

Directions

1. 1.

   Prepare a grill for medium, direct heat, preferably with hardwood or hardwood charcoal.

2. 2.

   Cook maple syrup, butter, vanilla, and salt in a small skillet over low heat, whisking occasionally, until butter is melted.

3. 3.

   Grill apricots cut side down, brushing with syrup mixture as they cook, until lightly charred and tender, 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a platter cut side up, and brush with additional syrup mixture. Let apricots cool to room temperature, then serve with ice cream.
