After a coworker roasted strawberries at Delish, I began to wonder: What other foods taste incredible roasted? Roasting peaches isn’t exactly groundbreaking, but I’d never tried it before, and boy, was I missing out.

It’s not the kind of recipe you want to make if your A/C is broken — roasting is a surefire way to heat up your kitchen fast — but otherwise, it’s absolutely worth it, especially when topped with whipped cream (or ice cream!) and a dash of cinnamon.

It’s the most virtuous mid-week dessert that can make a regular Wednesday night feel special.

Honey-Roasted Peaches Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 peaches
  • 2 tablespoons butter (about 1/2 tbsp per peach half)
  • Honey (just enough to drizzle on each peach)
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Whipped cream or ice cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. As it heats, halve the peaches and remove the pits.
  2. Place the peaches cut-side up in a baking dish, and cover the tops with chopped pieces of butter. Drizzle honey on each, then lightly sprinkle cinnamon.
  3. Roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the tops have browned. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before topping with whipped cream or ice cream.
