Honey and Thyme Grilled Apricots

Sweet and tangy Honey and Thyme Grilled Apricots have a savory and bright flavor. They are perfect as a side or as a topper to grilled bread and cheese.

I’m so excited – it’s stone fruit season and that means lots and lots of delicious fruit with pits (or stones). From cherries to peaches to plums – I love them all. But my favorite has to be delicate little apricots.

I grilled these to bring out the sweetness and to add a bit of smoky flavor. Then I drizzled them with honey and sprinkled with fresh thyme to make them savory.

Honey Thyme Grilled Apricots are very versatile; you can serve them as a sweet or a savoy addition. Here are some of the ways I like to serve them:

1. As a savory side with pork chops, pork tenderloin or grilled chicken.
2. As an appetizer – Top grilled bread with fresh burrata or mozzarella cheeses and grilled apricots.
3. As a sweet – just add a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
4. As breakfast – top with granola and Greek yogurt.
5. As a sweet smokey sauce – throw them in the blender and you have a beautiful sauce for your morning pancakes or waffles.
