I'm not really sure that this is an actual dessert. I really feel bad calling it a fruit dessert recipe because it's just a grilled citrus fruit topped with a little whipped cream and a touch of cinnamon. But it's good. And it brings some of my favorite flavors of summer together. Basically I could put any food on the grill and it would taste better because it's summer.
For this recipe I used oranges and pink grapefruit, but you could use:
Blood Oranges
Grapefruit
Oranges
Pomelo
Tangerines
