Easy Baked Peaches with Cinnamon Sugar Topping
Baked peaches with brown sugar, butter and cinnamon. Tastes like a homemade peach pie – without all the work and calories!
There is nothing better than a juicy peach on a hot summer day. I love buying a big box of fresh peaches this time of year. We love snacking on them all summer long. Another favorite is using them in all our summer desserts. One of our favorite ways to make them is to bake them with cinnamon sugar, and it creates a delicious caramelized top.
These baked peaches are so easy to make (5 minute prep) and taste amazing! They also taste amazing when grilled. So good! I love to top my baked peaches with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzled on top for the ultimate treat!
If you love peaches and cream, you are going to love this dessert! Baked peaches is one of my favorite desserts to make in the summer time.

Yield: 6
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
- 3 large ripe peaches
- 1 to 2 Tablespoons salted butter

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Slice peaches in half and remove the pit. Place in a oven safe pan. Place a small piece(about 3/4 teaspoon) of butter in the middle of each peach.
Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Then sprinkle over the peach.
Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Top with cream and caramel if desired.
These also taste delicious grilled. Place the peach in a piece of foil and wrap. Grill until the tops are golden (about 8 to 12 minutes).
These are so simple to make and so delicious! Don’t you just want a bite?!

These look pretty delicious! I’ve never had baked peaches, although they’re probably kind of like peach cobbler but gluten-free and MUCH easier. Right? ;)
Healthier and easier! ;) Hope you enjoy these Cheyanne!
These are making my mouth water! They look incredible!!
Is it wrong that I want to eat these for breakfast? What an awesome summertime dessert!
So simple but oh so good … You have inspired me to go and bake some stone fruit! Can’t wait to give this recipe a try. Thanks for sharing.
Frozen Cool Whip tastes just like ice cream! Think I’ll try this with a scoop of frozen Cool Whip. Yum!
A tip: Slice a small piece of peach from the bottom of each half. This keeps the half upright.
That’s a great tip, Diana!
Tried them last night, YUM! Used a muffin tin and added just a sprinkle it nutmeg.
This will be a new summer fav, thank you!!
I’m so glad you liked them! Glad you found a new treat to enjoy this summer!
Do you eat the peach peel, or remove it before serving?
I eat the peach peel! You are welcome to remove it if you don’t like it though. :)
How do I get the seed out without destroying tbe peach? I really wanted to di tbis.
Hi Rochelle! If the peach is ready to eat, the pit should come out pretty easily if you cut it in half first. :)
I made these last night and had them with ice cream. They were so yummy! This morning I warmed up one of the leftover peaches, put vanilla yogurt and granola on top with a little caramel sauce. It was very delicious!
YUM! I’ll have to try the breakfast version next time I make these, thanks for sharing!
Make sure you use freestone peaches and not cling. It is very hard to get the pit out of cling peaches. My husband bought cling peaches.
Great tip! Thanks!
