Brown Sugar Peaches Recipes

TIPSY PEACHES

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the peaches, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mix in the brown sugar, vanilla, and whiskey; simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes, until peaches are soft and the sauce has darkened. Serve as a side dish or over ice cream.

FRESH SOUTHERN PEACH COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss to coat evenly, and pour into a 2 quart baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.
• Remove peaches from oven, and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Sprinkle entire cobbler with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.

BROWN SUGAR PEACHES

Steps:

• Gently toss sliced peaches, golden brown sugar, and fresh lemon juice in large bowl to blend. Let stand at room temperature until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 2 hours.

BROWN SUGAR PEACH ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• Remove the pound cake from its pan and line the pan with plastic wrap, leaving plenty of overhang.
• Slice the cake horizontally into 3 equal slices.
• Mix the peaches, preserves, salt and 3 tablespoons brown sugar in a bowl, then set aside.
• Add the heavy cream, remaining 3 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of the reserved peach juices to a bowl. Whip until firm peaks form.
• Place one slice of cake in the bottom of the lined pan and press to slightly flatten. Top with a third of the whipped cream and a thin layer of the peach mixture. Repeat the process 2 more times, saving the rest of the peaches to serve with the cake.
• Loosely cover with the overhanging plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours. Cover and reserve any extra peach mixture for serving.
• To serve, carefully lift the cake from the pan using the plastic wrap, then discard the wrap. Place a few basil leaves over the top. Slice and serve with the reserved peaches spooned over the top.

CINNAMON AND BROWN SUGAR PEACHES

Steps:

• Place peach halves, cut-sides up, in microwaveable pie plate.
• Combine next 3 ingredients; sprinkle over peaches.
• Microwave on HIGH 30 sec. to 1 min. or until sugar begins to melt and peaches are heated through. Top with yogurt. Serve warm.

BROWN-SUGAR PEACH PAVLOVA

Steps:

• Pavlova: Preheat oven to 300°F with a rack in center. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Using an overturned bowl or cake pan as a guide, trace an 8-inch circle on parchment; turn parchment marked-side down.
• Place egg whites, brown sugar, and salt in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on low speed until well combined and no lumps of sugar remain. Increase speed to medium; beat until soft peaks form, about 9 minutes. With mixer running, gradually add granulated sugar. Continue beating until peaks are stiff and glossy, about 2 minutes more. Beat in vinegar and vanilla.
• Secure marked parchment to baking sheet with a small dollop of meringue under each corner. Using a rubber spatula, spread remaining meringue onto marked 8-inch circle; form peaks around edge and a well in center. Bake until meringue is crisp around edges and just set in center, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Turn off oven and let cool inside 2 hours. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let stand until meringue is cool enough to handle. Carefully peel meringue off parchment and let cool completely on rack.
• Poached peaches: Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and 2 1/4 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Add peaches (cut-sides up) and cover with a parchment round to keep them submerged. Reduce heat to low and simmer until peaches are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer peaches to a plate with a slotted spoon. When cool enough to handle, peel, discarding skins. Bring poaching liquid to a boil; cook until thickened and reduced by half (you should have 1 cup), about 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and chill in ice bath until cold.
• Topping: In a bowl, beat heavy cream with granulated sugar on medium speed until stiff peaks form. To assemble, carefully place meringue on a serving platter. Spoon whipped cream on top, spreading to edges; then add peaches, cut-sides down. Drizzle with syrup, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
