Enjoy the taste of Summer with these roasted peaches. They can be baked in the oven or air fried. Top them off with some whipped cream cheese, a little honey, and some almonds for crunch.
Peaches are super hard to find ripe where I live in the Summertime. They usually are hard when you get them at the grocery store and you have to ripen them to become soft. Kind of like how avocados are. To ripen peaches you can place them in a paper bag and in a couple of days they will be ready to eat.

Why Air Fryer Peaches?
An air fryer is a versatile kitchen appliance that circulates hot air around food to cook it quickly and evenly. This method provides a healthier alternative to traditional frying, as it requires little to no oil. When it comes to peaches, using an air fryer caramelizes their sugars, enhancing their flavor while maintaining the fruit's natural juiciness and texture. The result? A healthy, delectable snack or dessert that’s perfect for any occasion.
Creating this scrumptious treat is incredibly easy and requires minimal ingredients. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:
Ingredients Needed
- 3 ripe peaches
- 1 tablespoon of melted butter
- 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- Drizzle of Honey
- A pinch of salt
- Optional toppings: vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or granola, almonds
How to Make Air Fryer Peaches
- Prepare the Peaches: Begin by washing the peaches thoroughly. Cut them in half and remove the pits. You can leave the skins on for added texture or peel them if you prefer a smoother finish.
- Mix the Topping: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is well-blended.
- Coat the Peaches: Brush the butter mixture onto the cut sides of the peach halves. Ensure they are evenly coated for the best flavor.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat for a few minutes.
- Air Fry the Peaches: Place the peaches cut side up in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 8-10 minutes or until the peaches are tender and the tops are caramelized.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the peaches from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve them warm, topped with your choice of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or crunchy granola for an extra layer of texture.
