Peaches With Honey Syrup Recipes

BAKED PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x9-inch or similarly sized baking dish that's large enough to hold the peach halves in a single layer with nonstick spray. Pick a dish that's sized to where your peaches fit comfortably side by side, but there isn't too much excess room around them. Arrange peaches cut-side up in the dish.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the oil, maple syrup, brandy, coconut sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Spoon the mixture over the peaches, filling the center and letting it run over the sides.
• Bake peaches, uncovered, until the peaches are cooked through and fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream, Greek yogurt, or a pour of heavy cream, as desired.

HONEY PEACH SIMPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• Heat all ingredients in a small pot over medium heat until the honey melts.
• Let the mixture steep for at least 20 minutes. Strain the syrup from the peaches. Save the spent peaches to stir into oats or yogurt or eat it like applesauce - or uh peach sauce.
• Bottle, cap and refrigerate the honey peach simple syrup for up to one week. Some peach particles will likely settle to the bottom, so be sure to shake it up before using.

PEACHES WITH HONEY SYRUP

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, lightly score bottom (not stem end) of each peach with hatch marks.
• Prepare an ice bath, and set aside. Fill a large (4-quart) saucepan with enough cold water to cover peaches; remove peaches. Over high heat, bring water to a boil, and blanch peaches about 1 minute (more if skin is not pulling away from peach). Using a slotted spoon, immediately transfer peaches to ice bath. Remove from ice water, and peel. Set aside peaches and skins.
• Reserve 4 cups of poaching liquid in pan; add skins and honey. Bring to a boil, and cook until reduced to 11/2 cups. Pour liquid through a sieve set over a bowl, and discard skins. Immediately spoon syrup over peaches, and serve.

WARM PEACHES WITH BASIL & HONEY

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the peaches or nectarines, then cook both sides until slightly softened, about 3 mins. Add the honey and stir to make a sauce, then add the orange juice and allow to bubble briefly. Stir in the basil and serve warm with scoops of ice cream.
