Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 package vanilla instant pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 6 sheets graham crackers
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
Peel and slice the peaches into thin slices, discarding the pits.
In a medium saucepan, combine the peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the peaches release their juices and the mixture thickens slightly (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.
Prepare the vanilla pudding by whisking the vanilla instant pudding mix with cold milk in a medium bowl. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and thickened, then refrigerate for 5 minutes.
In a food processor, pulse the graham crackers until they are fine crumbs. Add the brown sugar and melted butter, then pulse again until the mixture resembles damp sand.
Spread the graham cracker crumb mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes, or until golden and fragrant. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
To assemble, layer the dessert in this order: start with a spoonful of the graham cracker crumble at the bottom of each serving dish, followed by a layer of pudding, a layer of peach compote, and a dollop of whipped cream. Repeat layers if desired.
Top each dessert with a small sprinkle of the remaining graham cracker crumble for garnish.
Refrigerate the assembled desserts for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
