Ingredients For balsamic peaches with crème fraîche

  • 3
    fresh peaches, cut in half and pitted (white peaches are my favorite or you can sub nectarine or apricots)
  • 1/2 c
    dark balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 c
    freshly squeezed orange juice (save some of the orange zest for garnish, if desired)
  • 1 Tbsp
    honey, warmed *gently* so that it is easier to stir
  • 6 Tbsp
    crème fraîche or homemade whipped cream (please, no cool whip)

How To Make balsamic peaches with crème fraîche

  • 1
    Place peaches, cut-side up, in a large casserole dish
  • 2
    In a non-reactive prep bowl, whisk together the dark balsamic vinegar, orange juice, and honey. Pour over peaches and set aside to absorb for 15 minutes.
  • 3
    In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, place peaches, cut-side down, along with the marinade. Cook about 3 minutes, or until slightly softened. If the peaches look like they may start to burn, lower heat. Transfer a peach half to each serving dish, add a dollop of crème fraîche, garnish of orange zest if desired and drizzle marinade from the pan over and around.
