Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium-sized fresh peaches, ripe but firm
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon sugar (granulated or light brown sugar)
- 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional)
- 1 teaspoon butter (optional)
Instructions
- Wash and dry peaches thoroughly.
- Slice peaches in half along the natural seam and twist to separate. Remove the pit.
- Slice each half into thin wedges about 1/4 inch thick.
- In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon with 1 tablespoon sugar.
- Optionally drizzle 1 teaspoon lemon juice over the peach slices.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the sliced peaches and gently toss to coat.
- Let the peaches sit for 1 minute to allow the sugar to dissolve and create a glaze.
- Optional: Warm the peaches in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-30 seconds or heat briefly in a skillet with a small pat of butter until sugar melts and peaches soften.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Use freestone peaches for easier slicing. Letting peaches sit with cinnamon sugar for a minute creates a natural glaze. For a dairy-free version, omit butter or use plant-based spread. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. Adjust sugar to taste for less sweetness. Warming the peaches enhances flavor and texture but is optional.
