Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 ripe peaches
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 cup teff flour
- 2 cups dairy free ice cream
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash the peaches thoroughly and pat them dry. Slice each peach in half and remove the pit, creating a smooth cavity.
- In a small bowl, mix honey and melted coconut oil until well combined. Brush the peach halves generously with the honey mixture.
- Place the peach halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle cinnamon over the peaches.
- Roast the peaches in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are soft and caramelized around the edges.
- While the peaches are roasting, prepare the teff crust. In a shallow dish, mix teff flour with salt.
- Remove dairy-free ice cream from the freezer and let it soften slightly for easier coating.
- Using a scoop, quickly roll each ice cream portion in the teff flour mixture, ensuring a complete and even coating.
- Return the teff-crusted ice cream scoops to the freezer to firm up for 5 minutes before serving.
- Once peaches are roasted, remove from oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
- Place a teff-crusted ice cream scoop in each roasted peach half and serve immediately.
Tips
- Choose ripe, firm peaches for the best roasting results. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure but not be mushy.
- Work quickly when coating the ice cream with teff flour to prevent melting. Keep the ice cream scoops in the freezer between batches.
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cardamom or nutmeg to the honey mixture when brushing the peaches.
- If teff flour is hard to find, you can substitute with almond flour or gluten-free breadcrumbs for a similar crunchy texture.
- Serve immediately after plating to ensure the ice cream remains perfectly crusted and the peaches are still warm.
- For a more indulgent version, drizzle some additional honey or a sprinkle of toasted nuts over the final dish.
