If you want Easy Peach Dumplings, gather these.

  • 8 refrigerated biscuit rounds (16 oz / 454 g can) or 1 sheet refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 triangles) .
  • 4 6 medium ripe peaches, peeled and halved (about 1.25 1.5 lb / 600 700 g) .
  • 1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted butter .
  • 1 cup (220 g) packed light brown sugar .
  • 1 tsp (4.5 g) ground cinnamon .
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt .

For from scratch bakers, use this dough.

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour .
  • 6 tbsp (85 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed .
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) whole milk .

Quality matters. Use ripe but-firm peaches. Very soft fruit breaks. Use good unsalted butter. Real vanilla tastes better. Fresh cinnamon has a brighter kick.

Seasoning Notes

Essential spice combo is simple. Brown sugar plus 1 tsp (4.5 g) cinnamon is classic. Add a pinch of nutmeg for warmth.


Aromatics lift the sauce. Lemon zest brightens. Vanilla deepens caramel notes. Brown the butter for nuttiness. I once nearly burned it.

Watch it closely.
Quick swaps work. No cinnamon? Use 1/2 tsp ground ginger. No brown sugar? Use 3/4 cup (180 ml) maple syrup and cut water to 1/4 cup (60 ml) .

Want a boozy twist? Stir 1 2 tbsp bourbon into the sauce.

Equipment Needed

Cooking Method

Easy Peach Dumplings Quick Ovenbaked with Brownbutter Sauce presentation

I love Easy Peach Dumplings. They scream late summer comfort. The U.S. grows over 2 billion pounds of peaches yearly.

That little stat always makes me reach for a baking dish. These peach dumplings sit between Peach Cobbler Dumplings and Peach Crescent Rolls in spirit.

Prep Steps

Get your mise en place. Halve peaches, measure butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Unroll refrigerated biscuit or crescent dough. If you choose From Scratch Peach Dumpling Dough, chill it first.

Save time by peeling peaches with a vegetable peeler. Or blanch for 30 60 seconds and shock in ice. Lay tools within arm’s reach. Prep the baking dish now.

Safety note: watch boiling water closely. Use oven mitts when handling hot pans. Hot sugar sauce splatters be careful.

step-by-step Process

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F ( 175° C) and butter a 9x13 baking dish.
  2. Peel and halve peaches. Pat dry. If canned, drain well.
  3. Flatten biscuit rounds or unroll crescent dough. Place a peach half on each.
  4. Add a sprinkle of brown sugar and cinnamon. Wrap dough tightly. Place seam side down in dish.
  5. Brown butter briefly until nutty, about 30 90 seconds . Whisk in brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, and 1/2 cup water.
  6. Pour sauce over dumplings and top with a little granulated sugar. Bake 35– 45 minutes until golden and bubbling. Visual cues: dough puffed and golden, sauce bubbling at edges.
  7. Rest 8– 10 minutes before serving. Sauce will thicken as it cools.

Pro Tips

Brown butter adds depth. Watch it constantly. Don’t burn it. Stretch refrigerated biscuit dough gently to avoid tears. Seal seams well to trap juices.

Common mistakes: wrapping very soft peaches causes breaks. Overcrowding the dish yields soggy bottoms. If using Refrigerated Biscuit Peach Dumplings, space them apart.

make-ahead: assemble in the dish and chill up to 4 hours . Add 5– 7 minutes to bake time if chilled.

Honestly, my first batch leaked like a fruit volcano. Now I always dry peach halves thoroughly. Serve these as Peach Dumplings with Vanilla Ice Cream.

They taste like warm nostalgia. Try Brown Butter Peach Dumplings for extra caramel notes. Want the full printable recipe next?

Recipe Notes quick intro

Easy Peach Dumplings are my go-to summer treat. Peaches peak June to August. I made these first with refrigerated biscuits. Honestly, that shortcut saved a heatwave hit kitchen once.

Serving Suggestions: plating and pairings

Serve dumplings in a shallow bowl. Spoon that brown butter sauce over each one. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for classic Peach Dumplings with Vanilla Ice Cream vibes.

For a fancier look, add a dollop of mascarpone. Dust with extra cinnamon or lemon zest. Try pairing with iced tea or a sweet Riesling.

Small bites? Make Peach Crescent Rolls for parties.

Storage Tips

Cool completely before storing. Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best texture.

Freeze assembled unbaked dumplings for up to 1 month. Bake from frozen and add about 10 15 minutes to the time.

To reheat baked dumplings, warm at 325° F ( 160° C) for 10 15 minutes. Microwaving makes the dough soggy.

Variations

For a gluten-free twist, use gluten-free biscuit dough. For dairy-free, swap in plant based butter and dairy-free biscuits.

Seasonal swaps work great. Try apples in fall for Peach Cobbler Dumplings energy. Plums or nectarines also shine. If you want mini treats, use crescent triangles to make Mini Peach Dumplings.

Nutrition Basics

Per serving, expect roughly 420 calories. Fat around 20 g. Carbs near 58 g. Sugar about 35 g. These are estimates.

Peaches bring vitamin C and fiber. Using less sugar trims calories. Brown Butter Peach Dumplings feel indulgent but still better than heavy cakes.

A quick tip: watch the butter when browning. It goes from nutty to burnt fast. I burned mine once and learned the hard way.

I love how Quick Oven Baked Peach Dumplings taste like summer. They’re forgiving and fast. Try them with From Scratch Peach Dumpling Dough if you feel fancy.

Go bake a tray. You’ll get sticky, warm fruit and happy faces. If you want the full printable recipe next, I’ll write it out.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Easy Peach Dumplings and why are they so simple to make?

Easy Peach Dumplings are halved peaches wrapped in tender dough and baked in a brown butter/brown sugar-cinnamon sauce until syrupy and golden. The “easy” part comes from using refrigerated biscuit or crescent dough so you skip the fiddly pastry work; you can still make a from scratch dough if you prefer a more homemade finish.

They’re forgiving for beginner bakers but offer room for tweaks (brown the butter for deeper flavor or add lemon zest for brightness) that experienced cooks will appreciate.

Can I use canned peaches or other fruits instead of fresh peaches?

Yes drained canned peach halves work well and cut prep time, though fresh ripe but-firm peaches give the best texture and brightness; if using very soft fruit, handle gently to avoid breakage.

You can also swap in apples, plums, or pears (adjust baking time slightly for firmer fruits), and the sauce plays nicely with spice variations like cardamom or ginger for different flavor profiles.

How do I prevent soggy bottoms and make sure the dumplings bake through?

Butter the baking dish well and space dumplings so hot sauce can circulate; this helps the bases brown rather than steam. Bake until the dough is golden and the sauce is actively bubbling at the edges (about 35 45 minutes), then rest 8 10 minutes so the sauce thickens; an instant read thermometer is optional the dough should read around 200°F in the center or simply be puffed and set.

Can I assemble Easy Peach Dumplings ahead of time or freeze them for later?

You can assemble the dumplings in the baking dish, cover, and refrigerate up to 4 hours add an extra 5 7 minutes to bake time if chilled. For longer storage, bake, cool completely, and freeze portions up to 2 months; reheat covered in a 325°F oven until warmed through, then crisp briefly under the broiler if you want the tops golden again.

Leftovers keep in the fridge for 3 4 days and are delicious reheated with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

What easy substitutions and variations work well with this recipe?

Swap biscuit dough for crescent rolls for mini dumplings, puff pastry for flakier layers, or make a simple oil-based dough for dairy-free needs; plant based butter and vegan biscuits keep it vegan.

For flavor twists try adding 1 2 tbsp bourbon to the sauce, 1/4 tsp cardamom for warmth, or use maple syrup instead of brown sugar (reduce the water a bit); these are simple swaps that dramatically change the profile without extra fuss.

How nutritious are these dumplings and how can I make them lighter?

Estimated nutrition for six servings is about 420 kcal, 20 g fat and 58 g carbs per serving, though values vary by dough and portion size. To reduce calories and sugar, use smaller portions, swap half the brown sugar for a natural sweetener like 1/3 cup maple syrup (and cut the water slightly), use lower fat biscuits or a lighter homemade dough, and serve with a small scoop of low-fat yogurt instead of ice cream.
