My family loves peaches. We love fresh best, but if we can’t have fresh, canned is the next best thing.
I have a recipe for a fresh peach topping for waffles, desserts, and etc that we love. However, I decided I needed to have a version that uses canned peaches for when all those fresh peaches are gone.
This easy peach topping is the recipe I came up with that uses peaches canned in juice and utilizes the juice in the recipe too. This just helps to amp up the peach flavor.
Easy Peach Topping
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 (29 oz) can of peaches packed in juice
- 3 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Drain peaches, but reserve juice and set aside. Just peach slices into bite sized pieces. I cut each slice into thirds.
- Add 2 cup of juice (add water if needed to make 2 cups) to a sauce pan and whisk in the cornstarch. Add in the sugar,cinnamon, vanilla, and diced peaches and stir together.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for a few minutes until thickened. Allow to cool and serve over waffles, pancakes, desserts, etc. Makes 3 cups.

Made this today. It turned out pretty good. I was able to use 2 cups of juice. I made it as the recipe stated however at first I forgot to add the vanilla and tasted it that way. It was good then I added the vanilla and taste tested again. I think next time I would leave the vanilla out or maybe try some almond extract. It was easy to make. The sauce was sweet and the peaches had a little tartness. The true test will be tonight as we are going to try it on top of cheesecake.
