If you do not have nectarines at home or in the grocery store, you can always use any sphere-shaped fruit as an alternative. Just pay attention in grilling as each fruit has its distinct grain and texture. It is also important to position the nectarines or your fruit of choice a little farther than you used to have when grilling meats. This is to avoid the fruits from being overcooked or get burned.

It will be very nice if you will add a little effort in serving this recipe. Place this in a clean plate with a scoop of ice cream you have in your fridge. The Grilled Honey-Glazed Nectarines will surely be one of the all time favorite desserts for the whole family.
