Description

This homemade peach sauce is a versatile condiment that balances sweet fruitiness with a warm hint of nutmeg. Made with fresh or frozen peaches and brightened with fresh-squeezed orange juice, it creates a glossy, thickened glaze that elevates simple dishes. The natural sweetness of the fruit pairs beautifully with the citrus, making it an excellent topping for pancakes, waffles, or oatmeal. It also serves as a surprising and delicious accompaniment to grilled chicken or pork chops, adding a fruity acidity that cuts through richness. Quick to prepare and easy to customize, this sauce brings a burst of summer flavor to your table year-round.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. If using fresh peaches, slice two of them and set aside for later.
  2. Coarsely chop the remaining fresh peach.
  3. If using frozen peaches, measure out 1 cup of slices for blending and reserve the remaining 2 cups.
  4. Pour the fresh-squeezed orange juice into a blender.
  5. Add the chopped fresh peach or the 1 cup of frozen peach slices to the blender.
  6. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth.
  7. Pour the blended mixture into a medium saucepan.
  8. Whisk in the cornstarch and ground nutmeg until fully dissolved.
  9. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the sauce begins to thicken and bubbles form.
  10. Once thickened, fold in the reserved sliced peaches (fresh or frozen).
  11. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, just until the reserved peaches are heated through.
  12. Remove from heat and serve warm.
