On a night when I wanted a cobbler, but didn’t really want to bake; this was the ideal dessert. Fresh peaches and raspberries are lightly tossed with lemon curd and then baked until soft.
The fruit is sweet and tart and unbelievably fragrant when it comes out of the oven. Topped with barely sweetened whipped cream, this was a much nicer dessert than I anticipated. This would also be delicious with vanilla ice cream.
Baked Peaches and Raspberries with Lemon Curd
Servings: 2 -4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe peaches sliced thin
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1/4 cup lemon curd store-bought should work as well
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a small baking dish. The dish I used will hold about 3 cups. In a medium size glass bowl, warm the lemon curd until it is a thin consistency. (About 30 seconds in the microwave worked for me.) Add the fruit and toss gently to coat all the pieces. Bake for 15 minutes. The fruit should soften, but not fall apart. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream. Enjoy!

Sometimes just-fruit desserts like this are really all you need and I bet the lemon curd really adds something special!

This is my kinda of dessert! I would have never thought to bake it with lemon curd. Brilliant! Please come by and eat some our chocolate moussey thing 🙂 My son is out of town and I need someone to help eat that thing! Ha ha. The peaches are beautiful! Hope you had a nice weekend.

I love lemon curd and I'm always on the lookout for new ways to use it. I like the idea of the warm but not falling apart peaches, too, yum!

You and I are frequently on the same food wavelength. I just posted orange curd today. I would love to get to meet you sometime…I think we would be great friends in real life (not that this is fake life). This lemon curd idea with the peaches sounds like heaven. We've had 100+ temps this last week. YUCK!

Ohhhhhh this sounds so lovely and we are so close to peach season in Washington. Our raspberries will be around for a while. This week I made the blueberry-raspberry-lemon curd-sour cream-cream cheese-brown sugar delight I shared with you a while back.
