21 Fresh Peach Recipes to Savor All Summer
Including everything from drinks to dessert!
These fresh peach recipes are about to become some of your favorite ways to sweeten up summer! Start by baking our fan-favorite fresh peach cobbler recipe so it's ready for dessert, then sip on a fruity peach cocktail while you prepare a delicious peach chicken recipe for the main dish. (You get the idea; there's an easy peach recipe for every course.)
Sheet-Pan Chicken with Peaches and Tomatoes
Requiring just a handful of ingredients and two sheet pans, this easy peach recipe will be on repeat on your menu all summer. Spread the tomatoes, peaches, and onions on one pan, then spread out the mustard vinaigrette-coated chicken on another. Cook immediately or refrigerate up to 8 hours for a make-ahead summer supper on a busy evening.
Peach Cobbler
How can you distinguish cobbler from crisp? The biscuit-like topping on this fresh peach recipe means it's 100% a peach cobbler. (Crisps are known for their streusel crumble often containing nuts, oats, and/or brown sugar.)
Smashed Peach and Poblano Grilled Cheese
Flimsy white bread and processed cheese sandwiches have had their time. Enter: A modern makeover on the kid food fave, grilled cheese. Here, the dish is transformed to new flavor heights with salty sharp white cheddar, smoky roasted poblano, savory bacon, and sturdy sourdough. Oh yes, the easy fresh peach recipe, of course, also includes stone fruit. Here, it's slightly mashed (and dusted with ancho chile pepper, if you like things a bit hot) for easy spreading inside the stacked sandwiches.
Peach-Tomato Salad
Caprese salad meets fruit salad in this colorful, super-summery recipe. A simple homemade balsamic vinaigrette accents the sweetness of the fruit. Then it's time to get salty (with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese) and go nuts (toss on a handful of pecans).
Turkey Burger with Peaches and Blueberries
Salsa recipes aren't always tomato-based. For a sweet and savory supper, top grilled turkey burgers with a peach salsa recipe that also features berries and chili powder. Psst ... the secret ingredient that makes the turkey patties über juicy? You guessed it: A finely chopped peach.
Ginger-Peach Bellini
Take a break from orange-based mimosas. Our ginger-peach recipe is smooth, crisp, and boozy, like a brunch cocktail should be.
