Introduction
Baked Stuffed Peaches are a simple and delicious dessert that turns ripe summer peaches into a warm, comforting treat. Fresh peach halves are filled with a buttery cinnamon-oat streusel, then baked until tender and golden. Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an easy dessert that’s perfect for family dinners, summer gatherings, or a cozy night at home.
Ingredients
- 2–3 ripe but firm peaches
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with butter and set aside.
2. Prepare the Peaches
Cut the peaches in half and carefully remove the pits. Scoop out a little of the center of each peach half to create enough room for the filling.
Arrange the peach halves cut side up in the prepared baking dish.
3. Make the Streusel
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and oats.
Add the cubed butter and work it into the dry ingredients with your fingers until the mixture becomes crumbly and the butter pieces are about the size of small peas.
4. Fill the Peaches
Spoon approximately 1½ tablespoons of the streusel mixture into the center of each peach half.
5. Bake
Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until the streusel topping is golden brown and the peaches are tender.
6. Serve
Let the baked peaches cool slightly before serving. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an extra creamy finish.
Conclusion
These Baked Stuffed Peaches are an easy way to enjoy fresh peaches in a warm and comforting dessert. The tender fruit pairs beautifully with the buttery cinnamon-oat topping, while vanilla ice cream adds the perfect finishing touch. With minimal preparation and simple ingredients, this is a delicious dessert to keep on hand throughout peach season.
