Description
Caramelized Brown Sugar Peaches are a delightful summer dessert featuring juicy peaches coated in a sweet brown sugar syrup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large ripe peaches, sliced into wedges (approx. 900g)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Toss the sliced peaches with the lemon juice in a bowl to prevent oxidation and add acidity.
- Place a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it begins to foam. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt; whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes a thick, bubbling syrup.
- Carefully place the peach wedges into the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side without stirring too often until a mahogany colored crust forms.
- Spoon the remaining syrup from the pan over the peaches and remove from heat immediately to prevent the sugar from burning.
Notes
- Serve warm over ice cream or yogurt for an extra treat.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar.
- Make sure to use ripe peaches for the best flavor and texture.
