How to make Air Fryer Peaches Recipe
Air frying the peaches really brings out the natural sweetness and flavor of the peaches. Even if they’re not quite ripe – it sucks the sweet right out and gives it to you on a spoon!
- With a sharp knife, quarter or halve the peaches and remove the pit and clean out the inside a bit with a spoon.
- Place your peaches in the air fryer basket skin side UP (cut side down). I like to put them on parchment paper to catch the brown sugar as it melts
- Air fry peaches at 350º for 5 minutes.
- While they are cooking, in a small bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and brown sugar. I mixed with a fork and then my fingers – just easier!
- After 5 minutes, flip your peaches and put skin side DOWN and top each with a spoonful of the butter mixture.
- Air fry at 350º for 5 min more.
- Scoop the peaches out and top with your favorite ice cream or whipped cream! Add fresh mint leaves as well if you like.
This recipe was made using the Paula Deen Air Fryer.
Variations for Air Fryer Peaches
- Dairy-Free – Use a vegan butter and ice cream and drizzle with honey, Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- Other Fruits – you can easily swap peaches with plums, apricots and nectarines (any stone fruit)
- Get Nutty – finely chop walnuts or pecans and add to the brown sugar. You could even use granola.
- Waffles & Pancakes – you could also slice these up and top your waffles & pancakes with them! No syrup needed!

Tips, Tricks & FAQs
Store leftovers in an airtight container (I like these glass ones) in the refrigerator for up to a week. I would just microwave them for 30 seconds or so.
Nope – the peaches have enough sweetness in them and the air frying softens and perks them up – making them perfect. I would probably use peaches that a little UNDER ripe!
No – I wouldn’t. They’re going to get super mushy after freezing them. I also can’t imagine having any left!
No – I wouldn’t. Canned peaches are already ripe and they would get too mushy in the air fryer.
Nope – I hate the peel when a peach is “raw” but cooked it sort of disintegrates.
No – I never do. You only need to if your air fryer requires it. I had an oven style made by Instant Pot that required it.

Turned out pretty good! Next time I think I will put them in a round baking pan, and make them almost like a pie instead of putting them on parchment paper.
like you’d bake rolls in a metal pan?
I have no problem freezing peaches. Just cut in slices and put in plastic freezer bag and freeze. Taste just like fresh when thawed.
I made these tonight for the first time – my family all said if I don’t make this again, they’ll disown me. I subbed granola for the graham crackers because I am a terrible shopper and forgot them, but it still turned out incredibly delicious. My oldest daughter asked for the recipe and she never does that. Excellent!
That’s awesome – I’m so glad you loved them! I have air fryer baked apples coming – so stay tuned! They’re equally delicious!
This was a delicious and quite simple recipe. I especially love the graham crackers on top. I will certainly make this again.
I’m glad you liked it!!!!
I was so disappointed with the results. I’ve never had any problems with my Instant Pot Air Fryer, but this recipe just didn’t work. I ended up trying to get my peaches to cook for about 45 minutes, but they stayed hard and tough. I used an oatmeal topping – and it turned out great ! I might try again using apples.
Sorry about that – peaches need to be semi-ripe. If they’re a little under ripe – the air fryer can compensate for that but not seriously underripe ones.
I love roasted/grilled peaches, but you are absolutely correct, sometimes it’s not worth lighting the grill just for a few peacehes. I’m going to give this recipe a try just as soon as I can get my hands on some decent local peaches!
This post is confusing. Are they grilled peaches or air fried peaches? They can’t be both because a grill doesn’t give off the same taste as air fryer does….
Oh Bob…you think too much. Yes – they’re air fryer. it’s the “idea” of grilled peaches but in the air fryer and they’re delicious!
Super delicious. I made this with granola instead of Graham crackers because that’s all I had on hand. I had read on another comment that it worked for them so I had to try it too. The end result was great! Even my son and husband loved it and they are super picky. Thanks for a great recipe.
glad you liked it!!!
Love this article! It is a helpful post I really like this article so much. Thanks for sharing.
Loved this so easy and yummy.
I used Nilla wafers since I didn’t have graham crackers
glad you liked!
Can you sub nectarines for peaches? This looks so yum, I cant’ wait to try it!
of course – they’re smaller but it’ll still work!
Just a mote–I’ve grilled peaches then frozen them! Eaten them months later and OMG soo good! And not mushy at all..
P.s. I added. Alittle bit of a sprinkle of brn sugar when freezing…
I made this with keto granola in place of the graham crackers and swerve brown sugar replacement and it was phenomenal! The whole snack only had 12 net carbs that way! We will make this again all summer!
OMGoodness this is so easy and so tasty! No graham crackers so used some strawberry granola and added casa rondena’s chocolate Cabernet wine sauce! Oh so good! Thank you but I wanna know how do you get all that tasty sauce out of the bowl without drinking it lol
These were soo good!
Thank you and very easy🙂
Awesome! glad you liked!!!!!
My husband and I loved it! Thank you.
