Grilling fruit is always a good idea. But it can be tough to have soft fruit on the hot grill. Enter the plank. The Cherry plank not only serves as a great barrier to protect the delicate fruit, but it also infuses delicious smoky flavor into the plums. Top with some balsamic reduction and goat cheese for dessert perfection!

Chef's Tip
Make sure to watch
the grill! Depending on
the type of plums, they
can cook pretty quickly.
Directions:
- Soak the Cherry plank in hot water for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven or grill to 350°F.
- Mix 1 cup balsamic vinegar, add lemon juice, and bring to a boil. Simmer until it thickens, but be careful – it burns quickly!
- Cut plums in half and place on soaked plank. Drizzle with balsamic reduction.
- Add to preheated grill and cook until plums are soft and warm. Make sure to keep an eye on them, as they can cook pretty quickly.
- Remove from grill. Sprinkle with goat cheese crumbles and serve with mint leaves.
- Enjoy!
