Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 whole Fresh peaches
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.5 cup Shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the peaches in half and remove the pits. Dice the peaches into small cubes, leaving a few slices aside for garnish if desired.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, and lime juice. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and release their juices.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry. Gradually add the slurry to the peach mixture, stirring constantly to thicken. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the mixture reaches a jam-like consistency. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to chill.
In serving glasses or bowls, layer the peach mixture and the coconut cream alternately to create a parfait effect. Start with a layer of peach mixture, followed by the coconut cream, and repeat until the glasses are filled.
Sprinkle shredded coconut on top of each serving and add a peach slice for garnish. Optionally, add a mint leaf for a pop of freshness.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy your Peachy Coconut Delight!
