Step aside pancakes; butter and maple syrup is a combination worthy of the ripest grilled summer fruits. Can't find apricots? Try this recipe with peaches or plums for a fantastic ice cream topping.
You can also use a grill pan for this recipe. Wipe pan with vegetable oil-soaked paper towels and heat over medium-high. Grill apricots cut side down, brushing with half of syrup mixture, until lightly charred and tender, 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a platter, cut side up, and brush with remaining syrup mixture.
