Baked Peaches Recipes

Steps:

• Place peaches, cut side up, in a 1-qt. baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the walnuts, brown sugar, orange zest and allspice; sprinkle over peaches. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20 minutes. If desired, serve warm topped with ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spread peach slices into a baking dish in a single layer. Stir brown sugar substitute, pecans, flour, and vanilla extract together; spread over the peach slices.
• Bake in preheated oven until the peaches are heated through, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Arrange the oven racks in the center and lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Nestle the peaches, cut-side up, in a small baking dish. Drizzle with the honey and dot with 2 tablespoons of the butter cut into small pieces. Pour 2 tablespoons water into the bottom of the dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Place on the center rack and bake until the peaches are soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
• While the peaches bake, make the crumble topping. Put the graham crackers in a small plastic bag and coarsely crush with a rolling pin or can. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a medium bowl in the microwave. Add the crushed graham crackers, pecans and sugar and toss until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is combined. Line a baking sheet with foil and spread the crumble mixture on the sheet. Bake on the lower rack until toasted, stirring every 5 minutes, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the crumble cool on the sheet; it will continue to crisp as it cools.
• For each serving, put 2 peach halves and a spoonful of juices from the pan in a shallow bowl and top with a spoonful of ice cream or yogurt and a sprinkling of crumble.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange brown sugar, 1 teaspoon per peach, in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Top each brown sugar mound with a piece of butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Place a peach half, cut-side down, on top of brown sugar-butter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until peaches are soft, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Plate 2 warm peaches per serving and top with 1 scoop vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375.
• Grease a shallow baking dish with butter.
• Place cookies, grated chocolate, and butter in bowl and mix together.
• Place the peaches in a separate heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water.
• Let stand for one minute, then transfer to a bowl of cold water and let stand for additional minute.
• Remove the peaches from the skin.
• Cut each peach in half and remove pit.
• Using a teaspoon, scoop out a little flesh from each peach half.
• Chop the flesh and add to the cookie mixture.
• Fill each peach half with the amaretti cookie mixture, then sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the peaches are soft and the filling is crisp.
• Transfer to a serving plate and serve hot with creme fraiche or sour cream.

Steps:

• Cut up nectarines into bite sized pieces. (Figure about 1-1/2 nectarines per person.).
• Place in bottom of baking dish.
• Sprinkle with brown sugar (I usually use no more than a tablespoon per nectarine) and cinnamon (as much as you want).
• Then crush graham crackers over the top, about one whole graham cracker per nectarine.
• Then, randomly place small pads of butter over the top -- you don't need much, but it keeps the top moist.
• Then, bake at 400 for 15 minutes or until desired softness.
• Let it cool for a little bit, then scoop over ice cream.
• You can use peaches instead of nectarines if you can't find them, but I have found that nectarines turn out sweeter and juicier.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Halve the peaches and remove the pits. Arrange the peaches in a shallow gratin dish, cut-side up, in a snug single layer. If you like, fill the cavity of each peach with berries. Sprinkle the sugar over the peaches and berries-more or less, depending on the fruits' sweetness. Drizzle the wine or water over the fruit. Bake the peaches for about 20 minutes, until juicy and tender. Serve warm with their juices and, if you like, with softly whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
• Notes
• If you prefer, peel the peaches before baking: Drop the peaches in boiling water for 20 seconds or so, just enough to loosen the skins. Lift them out and plunge immediately into ice water. When cool, slip off the skins.
• In place of the berries, the peaches are delicious baked with an almond stuffing: Cream together 1/4 cup butter and 1 tablespoon sugar. Blend in 1 small egg yolk, 1/4 cup lightly toasted and chopped almonds, and 4 crushed macaroon cookies. Spoon the stuffing into the cavities of the peaches and bake. The stuffing is equally good with pears, nectarines, or apricots.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 225 degrees. In a bowl, gently toss peaches with lime juice and oil. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment. Place confectioners' sugar in a fine-mesh sieve and dust peaches evenly.
• Bake until peaches darken and begin to curl, about 1 hour. Let cool completely; serve.
