Peaches Cream Crunch Recipes

PEACHES AND CREAM, LITERALLY

Steps:

• Cut each peach in half along the crease, twist open, and remove the pit. Peel and slice. Cut slices in half to get roughly 2 cups of sliced peaches.
• Bring sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Boil until a syrup forms, about 3 minutes. Stir in peaches until coated. Bring syrup back to a light simmer, about 1 minute. Immediately remove from heat and pour mixture into a bowl.
• Transfer peaches into a large bowl using a slotted spoon. Pour in heavy cream and stir to combine. Divide mixture between serving glasses, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until completely chilled and cream has absorbed all the peach flavor, at least 3 hours.

PEACHES-AND-CREAM STREUSEL PIE

Steps:

• For crust:
• Blend flour and salt in processor 5 seconds. Add butter and shortening. Using on/off turns, blend until butter is reduced to pea-size pieces. Add 2 tablespoons ice water; blend until moist clumps form, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic; chill at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
• For topping:
• Combine all ingredients in medium bowl. Stir until small clumps form. Chill up to 1 day.
• For filling:
• Combine sugar and cream in heavy large nonstick skillet. Bring medium saucepan of water to boil. Drop 3 peaches into water and blanch 1 minute. Transfer peaches to bowl of ice water. Peel peaches and slice thinly, letting slices drop into sugar-cream mixture in skillet. Repeat with remaining peaches. Cook peach filling in skillet over medium-high heat until peaches are tender and sugar-cream mixture is reduced almost to glaze, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out dough to 14-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 3/4 inch; fold under and crimp. Pierce crust with fork; freeze 10 minutes. Line crust with foil and beans or pie weights; bake 10 minutes. Remove foil and beans and bake crust until pale golden, pressing with back of fork if crust bubbles, about 10 minutes longer.
• Spoon peach filling into warm crust. Sprinkle with topping. Bake pie until filling bubbles and topping is golden brown, placing baking sheet under pie to catch any drippings, about 50 minutes. Cool pie on rack at least 30 minutes.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH YOGURT WHIPPED CREAM AND OAT CRUNCH

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• For the yogurt whipped cream: Vigorously whisk the yogurt, heavy cream, vanilla bean paste, brown sugar and lemon zest together in a medium bowl until the mixture thickens and can hold its shape. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the oat crunch: Melt the butter in a medium ovenproof skillet directly on the grill. Stir in the oats, almonds and salt until coated. Stirring occasionally, cook the oats and almonds until just beginning to turn golden, about 5 minutes. Add the honey and brown sugar to the pan and stir until the sugar melts. Continue stirring and tossing for another 2 minutes until everything is well coated. Transfer the oat mixture to a baking sheet to cool, about 5 minutes. Break up the crunch into bite-size pieces. Toss the basil ribbons with the oat crunch until evenly distributed.
• For the peaches: Cut each peach in half and remove the pit. Whisk the brown sugar, lemon juice and honey together in a large bowl. Add the peaches and gently toss until evenly coated.
• Grill the peaches cut-side down over medium-high until grill marks develop and some of the sugars begin to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the peaches and grill until the skin is slightly charred, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peaches from the grill.
• Divide the grilled peaches evenly among 4 bowls. Dollop a generous amount of the yogurt whipped cream on top and sprinkle with a handful of the oat crunch. Serve immediately.
