Скачать или смотреть SWEET PEACH TOPPING!! GREAT FOR SUMMER DESSERTS!!

It's peach season! In my neck of the woods we are being blessed with the southern bounty known as sweet peaches! July always brings them but they are fleeting. Only around for about a month to six weeks we need to use them when we have them and enjoy the sweet delicious fruit we love. Today I am making a sweet peach topping that can be prepared in advance and used in many different ways. This is a great way to enjoy natures gift of summer!

Stone fruits are one of my personal favorites! Peaches being at the top, followed by it's cousins, nectarines, plums, apricots, pluots and cherries. We love these in our home and enjoy them when we can during the summer. When peaches come into the stores and the produce stands and the pick your own orchards open their gates, its time to think about how we enjoy everything from smoothies, to cobblers, to pies and cakes and even roast pork and lets not forget simply eating a juicy peach out of hand. Nothing compares.

This sweet peach topping is really more than a topping. It is very similar to the peaches from a cobbler but not as thick as that of a pie filling. This can easily be used for a quick shortcake, a crisp, as a filling for a hand pie or as a way to float a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a makeshift peach melba. No matter how you love it, this is going to make peach desserts a breeze!

This starts with fresh peaches. I used ten medium sized fresh peaches. I peeled them and sliced them. In total I have about ten cups. I add sugar, orange juice and corn starch. Placed over medium heat and cook until the juices have thickened and are no longer milky looking and the fruit is semi soft. Remove from heat and allow to cool then place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to a week. It probably won't last that long.

This "topping" has a nice thickened sauce, but not too thick. It is perfect for draping over a shortcake or pound cake slice using as a vehicle for peach melba or making a quick peach crisp. You can even use this as a pie filling for a lattice topped peach pie or, if you dice the peaches a little more you can make some delicious hand pies using refrigerator pie crust. There are so many possibilities here!

I would like to mention, because I know someone will ask, this recipe is not appropriate for canning due to the corn starch. If you would like to make peach pie filling for canning then I suggest that you research safety tested canning recipes that will be available on the website for the National Center for Home Food Preservation or the Agricultural extension offices for either the University of Georgia or the University of Washington state. Additionally you can refer to the Ball Blue Book or the Ball Complete Book of Home Canning for more information. Be aware that in order to make the thickened filling you will need to get clear jel in the "cook" form, not in the instant form that I use for things like stabilizing whipped cream. Just know that this particular recipe I have shared today cannot be canned safely either water bath or pressurized.

I hope you give this sweet peach topping a try sometime soon and I hope you love it!

Look for more videos coming soon using this topping in some different and delicious ways!
