Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups fresh or frozen peaches (about 2 medium fresh peaches)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
1 cup whole-milk plain yogurt

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

If using fresh peaches, halve and remove the pits. Add the fruit to a blender with the lemon juice, if using, and puree smooth.
Place the peach puree into a small saucepan over low heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly, until the puree starts to thicken. (Briefly cooking the puree intensifies the peach flavor.) Toward the end of cooking, when you stir with a spatula, you should be able to drag it through the pan and see the bottom briefly.
Turn off heat and let cool for 10-15 minutes. Sweeten to taste with honey (for kids over age 1) or maple syrup.
Divide the peach puree and yogurt among storage containers. Serve or store in the fridge and serve cold.

Notes

Store in airtight storage containers in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Serve in a bowl with a spoon or in a reusable pouch.
This is delicious with fresh in-season peaches but can also work with frozen peaches. If using frozen peaches, thaw them first.
To make this without a blender, simply dice the fruit and add to the saucepan with 1/4 cup apple juice or water and cook as directed, or until the diced fruit softens.
Omit the honey or maple syrup if desired. Avoid honey for kids under age 12 months.
Use dairy-free yogurt to make this dairy-free.
