No reviews

Sweet, tender Air Fryer Peaches deliver easy caramelized bliss. Golden brown sugar, buttery goodness, and fragrant spices transform ripe fruit into a warm dessert in minutes.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe, medium-sized peaches
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the peaches. Wash and pit the peaches. Slice each peach into 6-8 wedges or halves, depending on desired size. If using frozen peaches, ensure they are thawed and gently patted dry.
  2. Step 2: Combine ingredients. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced peaches with melted butter, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, alcohol-free vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently until the peaches are evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Preheat and arrange. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes, if your model requires preheating. Arrange the coated peach slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd it. Cook in batches if necessary.
  4. Step 4: Air fry until caramelized. Air fry for 8-12 minutes, shaking the basket gently or flipping the peach slices halfway through cooking. Continue cooking until the peaches are tender and lightly caramelized with a slightly browned edge.
  5. Step 5: Serve immediately. Carefully remove the caramelized peaches from the air fryer. Serve warm on their own, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of extra caramel sauce.

Notes

  • Leftover caramelized peaches can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; they're still delicious, though their texture will soften slightly.
  • To warm them up beautifully, simply pop the peaches back into your air fryer at 300°F (150°C) for a few minutes until heated through, or microwave gently if you're short on time.
  • These warm, caramelized peaches are heavenly on their own, but truly shine when paired with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, a dollop of fresh whipped cream, or even spooned over oatmeal for a delightful breakfast treat.
  • For the best caramelization and texture, always arrange your peach slices in a single layer without overcrowding the air fryer basket; this ensures they roast and caramelize rather than steam, so cook in batches if needed.
