Step 1
Cook the 4 bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to paper towels, then crumble into bits.
Step 2
Cut the 4 peaches in half and remove the pits. Brush the cut sides with the 1 tbsp vegetable oil.
Step 3
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place peaches cut-side down and grill until charred and softened, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and grill 2 minutes more.
Step 4
In a chilled bowl, whip the 1 cup heavy cream with the 2 tbsp powdered sugar until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 5
Place 2 peach halves on each plate, cut-side up. Drizzle with the 2 tbsp honey.
Step 6
Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with the bacon bits. Serve immediately.
Step 7
Optional: add a pinch of cinnamon or a few fresh mint leaves for extra flavor.
