Description
This easy and delicious pan-fried peaches recipe is a quick summer dessert that comes together in just 10 minutes. Perfectly caramelized peaches are flavored with cinnamon and maple syrup, making them an irresistible treat.
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter or regular butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Wash and cut the peaches in half. Remove the pit and slice each half into wedges.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add butter.
- Once the butter is melted, place the peach slices in the pan in a single layer.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the peaches are golden and slightly caramelized.
- Drizzle maple syrup over the peaches, sprinkle ground cinnamon, and add a pinch of salt.
- Gently toss to coat the peaches evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the syrup thickens slightly.
- Optionally, add vanilla extract and mix well.
- Remove from heat and serve warm as is or with ice cream, pancakes, or waffles.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid mushy texture.
- You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if not vegan.
- Add chopped nuts for extra crunch.
- Great as a topping for oatmeal, yogurt, or desserts.
