Streusel-Topped Oven-Roasted Peaches

Looking for an easy peach dessert that makes the most of fresh summer peaches? These Streusel-Topped Oven-Roasted Peaches are a simple, delicious way to enjoy ripe peaches with a little something extra. Fresh peach halves are topped with a lightly sweet, buttery almond streusel and roasted until tender and juice with the topping becoming golden and crisp in the oven.

This easy baked peaches recipe is perfect when you want a simple summer dessert without a lot of fuss. The warm roasted peaches become wonderfully soft and caramelized, while the crunchy streusel adds just the right amount of texture. Serve them warm on their own for a naturally sweetened treat, or top with a small scoop of lite vanilla ice cream for an irresistible peach dessert.

With just five everyday ingredients, this easy peach recipe is a delicious way to enjoy peach season. It is simple enough for a weeknight treat but special enough to serve when company comes over—and peach streusel is a favorite option when you are looking for a lighter, fruit-forward dessert.

Ingredients

• Fresh peaches
• Brown sugar
• All-purpose flour
• Slivered or whole blanched almonds
• Unsalted butter

How to Make Streusel-Topped Oven-Roasted Peaches, Step-by-Step

Step 1: Gather and prepare all ingredients.

Step 2: Preheat oven to 425F degrees.

Step 3: Place the peach halves, cut side up, in a shallow baking dish.

Step 4: Using a fork or clean hands, mash or rub the brown sugar, flour, almonds and butter together until a crumbly mixture forms. Top the peach halves evenly with the streusel mixture, pressing lightly into each peach.

Step 5: Bake until the peaches are tender and the streusel is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve alone or with a scoop of light vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt, if desired.

Recipe Notes

The easiest way to remove the pit from a fresh peach is to find the seam that runs from the stem around to the bottom, and cut all along the seam with a clean, sharp knife. With the peach cut all the way around, simply twist each half to break apart and use your fingers to pry the pit away from the flesh. If the pit sticks, you can use a spoon or small paring knife (affiliate link) to loosen and remove it.

For an extra-special summer peach dessert, sprinkle each serving with fresh raspberries or sliced strawberries.
