Peaches, like most fruits, are delicious when they’re in season. They’re sweet, juicy and good for you. But, as my mom says, “what are you gonna do with all those peaches?â€
She doesn’t always say that. Let me back up. We use to drive up to Michigan every summer when I was younger to pick peaches around this time of year. We bought them by the bushel … then she would say it.
And she’s right. There are only so many peaches you can eat in a week or two before they start going bad. So you have to make the most of them while they’re still fresh.
This year, the recipes I’m finding are over the top. You’ve outdone yourselves, bloggers. I am impressed. It’s not just all about the peach pies and cobblers anymore.
Take a look at this recipe for Peach and Lavender Jam from The Cooking Bride:
Awesome, right? You can find peach jam anywhere, but not with lavender. Here’s another one I’ve found from Breanna’s Recipe Box. It’s a Peach Pizza:
With grilling and brick oven season still in full swing, this is a perfect recipe for a Friday night. And last, but certainly not least, check out this Peaches and Cream Cake (I know, it’s a little on the traditional side but I couldn’t resist) from Camille Styles:
A classic. Pure classic. And if you buy a white cake, this recipe can even be a no-bake cake. Score!
I hope you enjoy this year’s peach season as much as I will with all these fantastic recipes.
But not to fear, we’ll still keep you posted with all the best recipes for Fall and Winter fruits and veggies. Pumpkins, apples, cranberries, and squash time is right around the corner. Those already sound good to me. I’m getting ahead of myself. Enjoy these peach recipes now and we’ll save the others for a later post. Keep checking back.
