Effortless Pan Fried Peaches (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Warm Peach Mixture
01 -
4 juicy peaches, ripe and fresh
02 -
1 tbsp of butter, unsalted
03 -
2 tbsp of brown sugar (adjust if needed)
04 -
1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon
05 -
1/4 tsp of powdered ginger
06 -
A small pinch of salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Hold each peach steady and cut it in half from top to bottom. Twist the two halves apart gently, and use a knife or spoon to remove the pit. Perfect halves aren't a must—they'll still turn out great!
02 -
Heat up the butter in a pan over medium. When it starts bubbling a bit, stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and that little salt pinch. Keep stirring until the mix turns into a thick amber sauce.
03 -
Lay the peach halves, cut side down, in the pan. Let them sit and sizzle for 5-7 minutes without much moving so they caramelize. Peek under one after a few minutes to check for a rich golden color.
04 -
Once the cut sides are golden and browned, carefully use a spatula or tongs to flip them over—they'll be soft, so work gently! Let the other side cook for another couple of minutes, spooning some sauce over them as they cook.
05 -
Eat them right out of the pan while they’re warm. Plate them up and pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, yogurt, or even serve alongside your favorite breakfast bites like waffles or pancakes.
# Notes:
01 -
Pick peaches that are ripe but still hold their shape—overly soft ones might fall apart in the pan.
02 -
For a flavor twist, toss in a splash of bourbon or a drop of vanilla while making the sauce.

Leftovers taste awesome the next morning when chilled and added to yogurt for a quick breakfast!
