Can I use frozen peaches?

I don't recommend using frozen peaches for this air fryer peach recipe. They will be too soft and moist to hold their shape and caramelize well in the air fryer.

Can I freeze air fryer peaches?

Yes, you could freeze the peaches after air frying. But, the peaches will become very soft after they are defrosted. You could then treat them similar to stewed peaches , and serve them on yogurt or oatmeal!

How do I know when the peaches are done?

The air fried peaches are done when the tops are browned to your liking and the peaches themselves are tender. This will depend on how ripe the peaches are and your own personal tastes. The cook times will also vary based on your own air fryer. So, don't be afraid to take some quick peeks during the cook time, and if you think the peaches need a little more time, check again after 1 - 2 more minutes. You can check on how soft the peaches are getting by piercing them with a fork.

Ingredients

Scale

3 peaches (see note 1)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 3 - 5 minutes (see note 2). While the air fryer is preheating, continue on with the following steps.
Mix together the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
Cut each peach in half vertically. Gently twist apart each peach into two halves. Remove the pits and discard.
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the cut surface of each peach half. If needed, use a clean finger to help spread the cinnamon sugar to create an even layer.
When the air fryer is preheated, place the peaches into the air fryer cut side up, spaced evenly apart. Air fry the peaches for 8 - 10 minutes, or until the sugar has caramelized and the peaches are tender.

Notes

1. For best results, use peaches that are moderately ripe (meaning not too hard or too soft). The peaches should give only slightly to gentle pressure.

2. The amount of preheating time needed will depend on your model of air fryer. For specific preheating instructions, check your air fryer manual.

3. A small amount of the cinnamon sugar and peach juice may drip onto the cooking surface of the air fryer. For me, this was easy enough to wash off using a soft-bristle dish brush. But, if you want to make cleanup a little easier, you can either: (1) spray the air fryer with cooking oil right before adding the peaches; (2) line the air fryer with a piece of parchment paper pre-cut to fit the bottom of the air fryer basket. Add it right before adding the peaches (after preheating); or (3) just wash the air fryer basket before the sugar fully hardens!
