Ok so I did two crazy things today. 1. I enjoyed my first Peaches of the season. Crazy right. That’s like summer time blasphemy. 2. I turned on the oven! YUP, I am officially crazy. Little Z and I made the most delicious baked peaches parfait for breakfast. We had everything we needed at hand and since most of the ingredients are kitchen staples (greek yogurt included) you can whip up this yumminess in no time.
You can use semi ripe or ripe peaches. Yellow or white flesh. The peaches We used were yellow and almost on their way to the trash because of bruising but they were perfect for baking.
We set up all the ingredients and writing out each one was a great way to get a food lesson in.
Once everything was assembled, the plate went in the oven.
While the peaches baked, we mixed up a quick no flour oatmeal crumble. We popped it in the oven for the last ten minutes of baking. In just over 30 minutes, it was time to take our peaches out the oven and put together our parfait.
You can totally enjoy these on their own but they are divine for breakfast. Confession: I saved some to make dessert. Baked peaches and vanilla ice cream sound perfect!
See how easy that was!
This is a fun recipe your kids can help prepare. The toddler helped with setting up the ingredients, adding the butter and spices. Her sous chef aka mama did all the cutting and was on oven duty.
Little Z was rather pleased to be the head chef in this mornings breakfast kitchen. When it was time to eat, she gobbled hers up and then tried to snatch mine. I snapped a pic of her funny I am busted face.
I’m sure you are enjoying more candids of Little Z and glimpses of Baby E on Instagram. If not, what are you waiting for? Keyboard run on over to IG now while you enjoy your baked peaches parfait.
