Deep Fried Peaches and Ice Cream [+ Video]

Making a Comeback!

This recipe for deep fried peaches might just be the best summer idea I’ve ever had. Nearly 20 years ago, it was one of the first recipes on our site to go totally viral – websites everywhere were buzzing about this sweet, cinnamon-kissed peach dessert. I felt like I had cracked the code on peach perfection.

Then I had more kids. Got more distracted. And I forgot.

How do you forget a dessert that good? Easy – life gets full. Kids may sleep through the night, but suddenly it’s sports, homework, and snack duty on repeat. But as I looked back through our 2000+ recipes, this one jumped out at me. It was time to bring it back.

I love mine with vanilla ice cream, maybe a spoonful of whipped cream, but the kids go all out with caramel sauce, raspberry drizzle – or both, because of course they do. The whole thing reminds me of my mom’s Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler and our Peach Crisp – those warm, spiced desserts that made every camping trip feel like a feast, even if we were eating cross-legged in the dirt.

If you’re loving these deep fried peaches, you’ll definitely want to check out these other peach-filled handy snacks: the chewy, wholesome Better For You Peach Oatmeal Bars and the buttery, golden Peach Dumplings with Crescent Rolls and Sprite.

Ingredients for Deep-Fried Peaches

Let’s be honest – anything dipped in batter and tossed in cinnamon sugar is already halfway to dessert heaven. Luckily, this easy recipe has simple ingredients that come together fast so you can get straight to the good stuff!

• Fresh Whipped Cream: Optional fluff to finish it off just right.
• All-purpose Flour: Creates that golden, crispy coating.
• Milk: Keeps the batter smooth – whole milk is best, but any kind works.
• Sugar: Adds just enough sweetness to balance the cinnamon.
• Large Egg: Binds the batter

Ingredients for Brown Sugar Peach Crumb Bars

Nothing complicated here – just fresh peaches, a few pantry basics, and that buttery crumble magic that turns golden and crisp in the oven.

• All Butter Pie Crust: We use one double crust of Mom’s Magic Pie Crust – it’s flaky, foolproof, and our forever favorite.
• Peach Chunks: About 7 cups from 7 fresh peaches, peeled or unpeeled. Big chunks hold their shape better and give more texture.
• Brown Sugar: Adds rich, caramel-y sweetness to both the filling and the crumble.
• Cornaby’s Ultra Gel: Keeps the peach filling thick without tasting starchy. You can sub cornstarch in a pinch, but trust us – Ultra Gel is worth tracking down.
• Lemon Juice: Brightens the fruit and balances the sweetness.
• Cinnamon: A little warm spice in both the peachmixture and the topping.
• All-Purpose Flour: Gives the crumble topping its perfect, sandy texture.
• Salt: Just a pinch brings it all to life.
• Unsalted Butter (Cold): Cold and cubed so the crumble bakes into buttery, golden clumps.

Mom’s Easy Caramel Brownies

My mom’s famous caramel brownies are hands-down the most requested recipe in our family. These cake mix caramel brownies are fudgy, gooey, and unbelievably easy to make. All you need is cake mix, chocolate chips, caramel, butter, and evaporated milk to create the most irresistible brownies ever!

Caramel Brownies with a Cake Mix

My mom has been making these caramel brownies for as long as I can remember. They were the birthday request of choice in our house and a must at every Fourth of July pool party. Everyone looked forward to them. They’re that good. When Cade and I got engaged, I baked a batch for his birthday and left them on his counter as a surprise. Two days passed, and he still hadn’t touched them. He was deep into clean eating and avoiding sugar. I felt crushed. I told him how much it hurt, so he tried one. Ever since, they’ve been his favorite dessert. Now, my mom even mails him a batch every so often.

The secrets? We always use margarine instead of butter. It makes the brownies extra gooey but still hold their shape. Only Betty Crocker German chocolate cake mix and Kraft caramels will do.

Now go make these brownies and leave a little love note for my mom so she feels special.
