Ingredients
Scale
Peaches
- 4 large yellow peaches, halved and pitted
Glaze
- 2 tbsp fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tbsp melted vegan butter
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
Garnish
- A handful of fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to get it ready for roasting the peaches.
- Prepare Glaze and Peaches: In a baking dish, combine the lemon juice, granulated sugar, melted vegan butter, and vanilla extract. Brush this mixture over the peach halves thoroughly, then arrange the peaches cut-side down on a baking pan.
- Initial Baking: Bake the peaches in the oven for 8 minutes to start softening and caramelizing them.
- Brush and Continue Baking: After 8 minutes, remove the pan and brush the tops of the peaches with the glaze remaining in the dish. Return the peaches to the oven and bake for an additional 12 minutes until tender and beautifully roasted.
- Serve: Remove the peaches from the oven, serve them warm with the glaze drizzled on top, and garnish with fresh raspberries for a refreshing contrast.
Notes
- For an extra special treat, add a generous scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream on top; the contrast between warm peaches and cool ice cream is delicious.
- Feel free to experiment with other toppings such as blueberries, cherries, or strawberries to complement the roasted peaches.
- Try serving with a dollop of coconut whipped cream or Greek yogurt for added creaminess and flavor.
- Adding crunchy nuts like walnuts, almonds, or toasted pecans will provide a delightful texture and rich taste.
