Ingredients Needed for Baked Peaches and Brie
Peaches – This recipe calls for 6-8 yellow peaches. Be sure the peaches are ripe but not mushy. You can remove the pit and dice them into small pieces. You’ll need 3.5-4 cups total. Yellow peaches tend to have more peach flavor, so I suggest using yellow for this recipe.
Filling – Toss the diced peaches with AP (all purpose) flour, light brown sugar, fresh squeezed lemon juice, maple syrup, almond extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Toss until well combined.
Brie – You’ll need to cube four to five ounces of brie cheese for this recipe. You can leave the rind on.
Butter – Use about one tablespoon of butter to grease a 9.5-inch glass pie dish. You’ll need a little extra butter to lightly butter the inside of the brioche sub rolls before grilling.
Almonds – Top the dish with toasted almonds for extra flavor and crunch.
Brioche Sub Rolls – You’ll need two brioche sub rolls for this recipe. Add a light coating of butter to the inside of the rolls before adding them to the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes or until they are lightly charred.
Pro Tips for Baked Peaches and Brie
Be sure to use ripe yellow peaches. Yellow peaches have more peach flavor than white, which tastes good in this recipe. Also, mushy peaches will not taste good so avoid anything mushy.
Grill your brioche rolls for an added layer of flavor and texture. Lightly butter the inside of the rolls before adding them to the hot grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes or until they are lightly charred.
Be sure to use a glass 9.5-inch pie dish. The glass pie dish will heat faster than ceramic. Causing the peaches to caramelize. You can also see how the dish is coming along with a glass pie dish.
