Peach rings have been on my mind for the past couple days...lets just say ever since I went on my soapbox about the peach gummy's containing Red 40. So the other day I made a trip to Whole Foods Market and picked up three peaches that weren't ripe yet, they were still a little firm. My plan worked and by today they were just ripe enough to bake. I began searching the kitchen of things that would caramalize these rings and have a sweet flavor yet relaxing effect. Raw blue agave nectar has a richer taste and a low glycemic index, so I chose this over sugar in the raw. Then for the relaxing effect, I added ground cinnamon, which is a natural mild anti-inflammatory and aids in digestion. For the kick, I added vanilla extract and allspice. These are delicious and are perfect when you are in the mood for something extra sweet or a romantic evening ;)
Ingredients:
3 ripe organic peaches
1/8 cup raw blue agave nectar
1/4t ground organic cinnamon
1/4t allspice
1/4t vanilla extract
1t coconut oil
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Slice peaches into rings about a 1/4 inch thick. In small bowl combine the agave, cinnamon, allspice, and vanilla extract. Dip each ring into the mix wetting both sides. Grease the baking sheet with coconut oil. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool.
