Sweet, juicy and soft air fryer peaches are very easy to make. They taste like grilled peaches and can be served as a sweet snack or as a dessert with vanilla ice cream.
This recipe for air fryer peaches is fast, easy, and worth pulling out your air fryer for. When peaches are in season, and go on sale, this is our favorite dessert to make. Apart from fresh peaches, you only need three ingredients to make this summertime treat. And they taste so rich and insanely delicious!
Air fryer is the perfect appliance for grilling fruits to make healthy desserts. If you're looking for fruit based desserts in the air fryer we love making Air Fryer Pineapple and Air Fryer Caramelized Banana. You can substitute peaches with stone fruits like nectarines, plums or apricots and they'll be delicious too.
The best thing about Air fryer is that making smaller portions of any dessert is much easier in it. Who wants to fire up the grill for just a few peaches? And the circulating hot air caramelizes the sugars in the fruit, bringing out the natural sweetness and so much flavor.
This air fryer peaches recipe takes only 10 minutes and you'll have a delicious dessert in no time. No need to peel the peaches or flip them in the air fryer. Once cooked, the peels slide off easily.
