Ingredients

4 peaches Use very ripe freestone peaches. washed well. Leave the skins on.
1½ teaspoon maple syrup pure maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Line or grease a large baking dish or sheet pan.
Slice each peach in half and remove the pit and stem.
4 peaches
Slice the peaches and lay the peach slices in a single layer on the baking dish. To save time, I slice the peach halves over the baking dish and spread them out as I'm slicing them. *Skip this step and see notes section if you will be roasting peach halves instead of peach slices.
Use a basting brush to cover the top and sides of each peach slice with a light layer of maple syrup.
1½ teaspoon maple syrup
Optional step: sprinkle granola or pumpkin seeds on top of some of the peach slices.
Place in the preheated oven and roast at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.

Notes

- Line the baking dish with parchment paper to make cleanup easy.
- If your peaches aren't quite ripe, let them sit out at room temperature for a day or two before roasting.
- Do not pour the maple syrup directly on the peaches. Instead, pour the maple syrup in very small bowl then use a basting brush to brush a light layer of maple syrup on the peach slices before roasting.
- Roasting peach halves will take longer than roasting sliced peaches. To roast peach halves, lay the peach halves skin side down. Brush a light layer of maple syrup on all sides of the peach half. Roast for 25 minutes. Optional: fill the center of each peach half with granola before roasting.
- Allow leftover roasted peaches to cool to room temperature before storing refrigerated in an airtight container.
- To roast peaches in an air fryer, place the baking rack in the lowest position and reduce the cooking temperature to 350 degrees. Cook for 10 minutes.
