BBQ Grilled Caramelized Plums
Grilled fruits are popular worldwide because the heat caramelizes their natural sugars, resulting in a richer and sweeter flavor. Plums work especially well when grilled because their fleshy texture holds its shape nicely while acquiring a slightly smoky flavor. In this version, the BBQ sauce adds a slightly savory-spicy contrast, while honey and cinnamon enhance the fruit's sweetness. It's perfect as a dessert or even as a side dish to grilled meats!
