Recipe Ingredients
- Peaches (Halved and Pitted): Provide a natural sweetness and juicy texture which, when air-fried, intensifies to create a delightful caramelized flavor.
- Brown Sugar or Brown Sugar Substitute: Enhances the natural sweetness of the peaches, while also adding a rich, molasses-like flavor that pairs perfectly with the fruit.
- Ground Cinnamon: Infuses the peaches with its warm, slightly spicy flavor, creating a wonderful contrast to the sweetness and adding depth to the overall taste.
- Butter (Room Temperature): Adds a creamy, rich dimension to the dish and also helps in caramelizing the sugar on the peaches.
How to Make Air Fryer Peaches?
Step One: Preheat the air fryer to 350°.
Step Two: In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter until combined.
Step Three: Place the peaches into the air fryer basket with the cut side up. Top each peach with the butter mixture.
Step Four: Cook the peaches in the air fryer for 7 to 12 minutes until caramelized on top. Serve immediately topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Variations
Canned Peaches: if you don’t have access to fresh peaches or it’s not stone fruit season, use canned peaches. Wash them and pat dry first and then place in a pan. The peaches will taste almost like a crustless peach pie/peach cobbler.
Substitutions
Coconut Oil: Use coconut oil instead of butter to coat the peaches. Slightly under ripe peaches cook well when coated with a little oil.
Storage & Reheating Instructions
- Fridge: Store leftover air fryer peaches in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
- Freeze: I don’t recommend freezing air fried peaches. Just cook enough for your needs and freeze them uncooked.
- Reheating: To reheat Air Fryer Peaches reheat refrigerated peaches for 3-5 minutes and frozen peaches for 8-10 minutes (turning halfway). Serve warm with yogurt or cinnamon.
What to Serve With Baked Peaches?
- Vanilla Ice Cream: Air fried peaches are delicious on their own, but they can also be served with ice cream, cream or even custard.
- Yogurt: For a healthier option, try serving them with Yogurt or Granola.
- Whipped Cream: Serve golden brown with a healthy dollop of Whipped Cream.
- Maple Syrup: Add some maple syrup or cinnamon butter with chopped walnuts.
