Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer dessert featuring tender baked peaches caramelized with brown sugar and topped with fresh whipped cream. Perfect for warm evenings and simple gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine peach halves with brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract if using. Coat each peach half evenly.
  3. Arrange the peaches cut side up in an 8×8 inch baking dish, ensuring they are snug but not stacked.
  4. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes until peaches are tender and sugar is bubbling with a slight browning on top.
  5. While peaches bake, chill a mixing bowl and whisk or beaters in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
  6. Pour cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl and whip with powdered sugar until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer or longer by hand.
  7. Serve the warm baked peaches immediately topped generously with the fresh whipped cream.

Notes

If sugar browns too fast, tent the dish with foil halfway through baking. Chill the cream bowl and whisk before whipping for best results. Over-whipping cream can cause graininess; stop when soft peaks form. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For dairy-free, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and butter with vegan margarine or coconut oil.
