These Air Fryer Peaches are soft, sweet, and caramelized. Served warm with ice cream, creating a perfect combination of refreshing, warm, and creamy. It’s vegetarian, gluten-free and low-calorie.
Do you know what’s better than fresh peaches in season? Roasted peaches in season! Baking your peaches allows the natural sugars to caramelize and give this healthy dessert a heavenly taste.
If you don’t have time to whip up an entire peach cobbler, this is the solution! Roasted peaches have the same delicious taste and take half as much time to prepare.
In my humble opinion, the most delicious way to enjoy these air fryer peaches is simple: a la mode. A scoop of cold ice cream against the warmth of the peaches is so tasty.

How to Reheat Air Fryer Peaches?
The best way to reheat air fryer peaches is to put them back in the air fryer!
Set it about 50f degrees lower than the cooking temperature and cook for a few minutes to bring it back up to temperature.
Otherwise, you can gently microwave the peaches for about a minute as well. But you might run the risk of steaming them, so go slow!

Ripe peaches release their sugars when cooked, and that’s what makes this dish so delicious! So, it’s vital to select ripe peaches!
What to Serve with Air Fryer Peaches
- Buttered or crumbled shortbread – Great for making the peaches into a crumble.

- Chocolate sauce – Drizzle with a little dark or white chocolate sauce and let the peaches speak for themselves.
Can You Change Peaches to Other Fruit?
Absolutely! While peaches are delicious in season, they can be a bit difficult to work with out of season. There are plenty of other fruits that you can substitute, including apples, bananas, and pears.
They’re just as easy to prepare and just as delicious as a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
