Poached Peaches For Kids and Baby


I did a little research then decided what the heck just throw them into a big pot of boiling water. Since these were going to be for my children I wanted only the natural flavors of the fruit to shine through. So much healthier than canned peaches!



I boiled them for around 15 mins with skin and pit still attached.

Simmer as gently as possible until the fruit is cooked through but still slightly firm. Test by poking the fruit with the tip of a sharp, thin knife. The fruit is done when it offers no resistance but isn't yet mushy.



Then rinse them in cool water and the skin will come right off.



Next remove pit by slicing in half and it should easily be removed


Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week
