Peach Pie

Maybe it’s because of my time living in the South, but I truly believe summer isn’t summer without an abundance of fresh, juicy peaches . The sweet stone fruit is one of my favorite seasonal treats, and as soon as they arrive mid-summer I find myself loading up on them week after week until the last ones leave the farmers market .

If you’re wondering what to make with peaches beyond desserts like classic peach cobbler and creamy homemade frozen yogurt , know that you have so many options. Not only do peaches take well to the smoky char of the grill, but you can also turn them into something savory like carnitas or transform them into a drink. Here are 35 of our best peach recipes to make use of your haul this season.

If you’ve got the grill going, it’s worth tossing some peaches on the grates for a simple and satisfying dessert. Or if only a cold treat will do on a hot night, homemade frozen yogurt or semifreddo is your answer.
