Both forms (to gift someone something & to gift someone with something) are correct.
"Present" and "grant" do not require "with".

anonymousDo we say: He gifted her a few flowers. (or) He gifted her with a few flowers.
If you care about annoying people, don't use "gift" as a verb that way at all. He gave her the flowers. There are unusual abstract uses for the verb, but it sounds trendy and non-standard in this context.
