Step 1: Preheat

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes. Place the grill grate inside to heat up for those perfect grill lines.

Halve and pit your peaches. Brush the cut sides with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, and rub gently to coat.

Step 3: Cook

Place peaches flesh-side down on the grill grate. Lower the temp to 370°F and cook for 6-8 minutes, until caramelized and soft.
