Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 4 ripe peaches
Dry Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Optional Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to prepare it for cooking the peaches evenly.
- Prepare the Peaches: Carefully wash the peaches, slice them in half, and remove the pits to make way for the sweet topping.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. For extra flavor, mix in melted butter and vanilla extract if using.
- Coat Peaches: Gently coat the cut sides of the peach halves with the cinnamon-sugar mixture, making sure to distribute it evenly for consistent caramelization.
- Arrange Peaches: Place the peaches cut side up in the air fryer basket, arranging them in a single layer and avoiding overcrowding to ensure proper air circulation and even cooking.
- Cook: Air fry the peaches for approximately 8 minutes, or until they become tender and develop a slightly caramelized crust.
- Serve: Carefully remove the peaches from the air fryer and transfer them to serving plates for immediate enjoyment.
Notes
- Choose ripe but firm peaches for best results; overly soft peaches may become mushy.
- Adjust the amount of cinnamon and sugar based on your taste preferences.
- Skip the butter and vanilla to keep the recipe lighter and dairy-free.
- Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
- Leftover peaches can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
