July marks the beginning of peach season and I for one couldn’t be happier. Sweet summer peaches make the best desserts, at least I think so. We made a trip to the farmers market yesterday where a vendor was roasting whole peaches. Once roasted they would sprinkle sugar or cinnamon over the top with a drizzle of honey. Joe had to have one and actually let me share in a bite or two. The peach was warm and sticky and tasted delicious. After devouring that peach there was no way we were walking out of there without a basket of peaches to take home. Peach dumplings were an obvious choice as they are easy to make and fun to eat. I wanted to try something other than the traditional vanilla ice cream on the side so I added a warm vanilla cream sauce. I can honestly say I’ve never tasted a more delectable peach filled pastry.
