Equipment

Grill grate
Tongs
small bowl

Ingredients

6 medium ripe plums halved and pitted
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter optional, melted
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint for garnish

Instructions

Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Brush cut sides of plums with melted butter if using.
Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar.
Place plums cut side down on a grill grate over medium campfire heat.
Grill for 3–4 minutes, then flip and grill 2 more minutes until soft and caramelized.
Serve warm, sprinkled with fresh mint.

Notes

Use firm, ripe plums for best grilling. A grill basket can help prevent plums from slipping through the grate. Served straight off the fire for minimal cleanup.
