Time 17m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 angel food cake, prepared
1 cup cantaloupe, chopped or 1 cup honeydew melon
1/2 cup strawberry, chopped
1/2 cup blueberries
1 cup raspberries
1/2 cup blackberry
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chopped
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
4 cups sherbet (optional) or 4 cups sorbet, any flavor (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine fruit, sugar, lime juice, mint, and cayenne pepper and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
  • When ready to serve, prepare and preheat grill.
  • Slice cake in half horizontally and place, cut side down, on grill 6" from medium coals.
  • Grill for 30-60 seconds or until light golden brown. Carefully turn cake and grill on second side for 30-60 seconds until light golden brown.
  • Be sure to watch the angel food cake very carefully when grilling. Don't leave the grill for even a second, because it will brown very quickly!
  • Cut cake into 8 pieces and top with fruit mixture and sherbet or sorbet.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose firm fruits: Softer fruits, such as berries, can fall apart on the grill. Instead, opt for firmer fruits like pineapple, peaches, and watermelon.
  • Cut fruits into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a well-oiled grill: This will prevent the fruit from sticking.
  • Grill fruits over medium heat: High heat can scorch the fruit.
  • Turn the fruit frequently: This will help it cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the fruit: It should still have a slight crunch.
  • Serve grilled fruit with your favorite toppings: Yogurt, ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of honey are all great options.

Conclusion:

Grilled fruit is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy summer's bounty. It's a versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or dessert. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily grill fruit at home. So fire up your grill and give it a try!
