When you think of a dessert that uses peaches, the first dish that likely comes to mind is peach cobbler. Peach cobbler is a staple in many households during the summer, when peaches are fresh and widely available across the country. But this peach brulé recipe is another great dessert to enjoy with fresh peaches.
You won't need many ingredients to make this recipe. In fact, aside from the peaches and pecans, you likely have all of them on hand already. The type of peaches you buy doesn't matter too much, although they need to be ripe. It's important that you carefully inspect your peaches before using them, because underripe peaches will not work well in this recipe.
Since it's very easy to make, you can prepare it for just your family or for an event. Think about how delighted everyone will be when you arrive with this in hand! Double or triple the recipe as necessary to accommodate more people.
Serve this dessert with fresh whipped cream. If you've never made your own whipped cream before, now would be a great time to try! If making your own homemade whipped cream sounds like too much of an undertaking, store-bought is just fine.
