Got 2 bushels of peaches to do something with, looking for all those awesome peach recipe's and methods to preserve them.

Spiced peaches (cinnamon); brandied peaches. Peach applesauce.

Can them in a light simple syrup. They are delicious in the winter. Also try dehydrating some if you have a dehydrator. Peach pie is delicious. Freeze up some batches with a little sugar and lemon juice coating so that you can have pies all winter.

I'm surprised that no one yet has said peach cobbler. Hmm, warm with vanilla ice cream on it.

OK. That does it. I have to plant a couple of peach trees next Spring.

I gotta da peaches myself. I'm planning on canning.

I purposely buy peaches to can. Nothing like fresh peaches in the winter! I just can them in a super light syrup so you can use them for anything, anytime. Open them up when you want to make a cobbler, drunkin' peaches or just to put on a bowl of cheerios

Cobbler is awesome. My wife made open face peach pie last week, that's awesome too

We much prefer the peaches frozen. We peel and slice them and the only thing we put on the peaches is fruitfresh.

Hint: When getting peaches out of freezer during the winter most people don't like the fact that they turn brown pretty fast. That does not have to happen! Put a dish of frozen peaches in the microwave and zap them for 15-20 seconds. Then put as many of them into another dish (depending on how many you want at that time), then zap them again for 15-20 seconds.

This is how we unthaw them and find them superior to canned peaches. I enjoy fruit on cereal for breakfast but don't like the danged things when they turn brown. Doing them as above, they just don't turn brown. They might if you left them set for a long period but we've not had it happen.

Another vote for cobbler! Nothing makes cobbler like peaches!

This was our best harvest several years ago. Frost peach, the fruit was sublime. Unfortunately some damn beetle got under the bark and a few years later the tree was gone.
