Whether you know the pleasure of smoke-kissed grilled desserts or have only ever experienced a charred treat in s'more form, this collection of grilled dessert recipes is just what you need to set your sweet tooth aflame. "Just as a chicken benefits from the unique 'charred' flavor of charcoal, so do fruit and pastry," says cookbook author Paula Disbrowe about baking sweet treats on the grill. From the familiar flavor of a s'mores pie to grilled pound cake and skillet brownies, these desserts on the grill are a treat.
Skillet Brownies on the Grill

These brownies take on a deliciously smoky flavor on the grill from "baking" in a skillet set over hot coals. After you're done grilling dinner, prepare to make brownies by adding a few more lumps of charcoal to maintain a grill temperature of around 350°F. Pull the skillet brownies when they're still a bit moist in the middle for a fudgy center and smoky brownie "bark" around the edges.

"Fruit galettes have long been my go-to desserts," says food writer Paula Disbrowe. "Baking galettes on the grill is easier than it sounds, particularly when you think about working your grill as an oven (e.g. grill-roasted chicken). Just as a chicken benefits from the unique 'charred' flavor of charcoal, so do fruit and pastry."

Chef Bryan Calvert loves the versatility of his super-moist lemon pound cake, and uses it to make everything from French toast to a stuffing for baked apples. In the summer, he grills it until crisp and toasty, then tops it with warm, tender grilled peaches and whipped cream.

Chicago chef Stephanie Izard’s skillet cake, baked on the grill, gets amazing flavor from graham crackers mixed into the batter and in the crumbly streusel topping. It can also be baked in a 300°F oven for the same amount of time.

Baking clafoutis on the grill lends a delicious and unexpected smokiness to the simple French dessert, while whole-wheat flour provides a nutty kick to this otherwise classic recipe.

Instead of piling this pillowy Pavlova with just fresh berries, former F&W culinary director at large Justin Chapple grills some of the berries in a packet, so they get deliciously juicy.

Something extraordinary happens to a day-old doughnut when you cook it on the grill: It becomes incredibly tender on the inside and nicely crisp on the outside. This technique works for other leftover breads and pastries, too, such as challah, pound cake, or cinnamon buns.
