Keen on Peaches

Dessert pizza is a tricky concept

Last year we barely saw any peaches worth buying, which is a crying shame considering how far south we live. (We buy ours from local farmers, but we’re aware some fruit has been subject to recall.) We’re having fun eating peaches whole, but also like trying new recipes. The pizza above uses our standard dough, balsamic reduction, blue cheese, pecans and basil. We’ve posted a few new ones already including our peach shortcakes and grilled peaches with bourbon (what else!). We’ll be posting some new recipes in the weeks to come. In the meantime here are some of our all-time favorites.

First the drinks:

Peach, Bourbon Fizz

That is a nice looking peach

The Smokey Peach (See also Peach Margaritas)

It’s like an adult slurpee

Peach Daiquiris with Mint

Nice glass? There’s a beer logo on the back. Seriously.

Now for the bites:

Grilled Shrimp with Polenta, Peaches and Peppers

Throw that shrimp on the barbie

Peachy Keen Pancakes

A little slice of sunlight

Overnight French Toast with Buttermilk and Peaches

Peach Jam Scones

Dessert for breakfast what a charming idea

Bourbon Peach Butter

Does anyone still make a good vanilla ice cream

Peaches Stuffed with Amaretti

The ice cream is overkill. Tasty overkill

Deep Dish Peach Cobblers for Two
