We are coming into peach season, so this post is the perfect thing to have on hand for all those peaches! Here are some fun things to do with ripe peaches this summer!
Peaches are delicious to eat, but you can do other things with them too. Like make something for your skin! I have included some of those in this post too because making homemade skincare is one of my favorite things to do!
Enjoy all things peach!
Things to Do With Ripe Peaches This Summer
Peaches are such a great summer treat, but they don’t last long. I always buy them when they are on sale, then end up having too many to use up. Here is a list of some great summer recipes to try, and some don’t even involve eating them 😮
Growing up, we always had a peach tree. I remember every summer spending hours getting all the peaches off the tree because they would weigh it down so much. One year, we had dozens of buckets full of peaches. We were giving them away to everyone we knew so they didn’t go to waste!
Hopefully some of these recipes can help you use up your peaches before they go bad.
Make roasted peach yogurt
This is one of my favorite recipes for really ripe peaches. It is so delicious!!
Make cinnamon honey peach butter
I love peach butter! This recipe is super easy and delicious!
Peach smoothies!
I actually have a peach smoothie recipe I am working on (not ready yet), but here is an easy one from Food Network. You could easily make this dairy-free too!
Easy peach jam
You can use this exact recipe for jam and substitute peaches. It is so easy! I use this jam recipe all the time for fruit that needs to be used up. That link uses raspberries, but you can do an equal amount of peaches to make a really easy jam.
Healthy peach popsicles
These popsicles from Tastemade look so good and super easy! I love the combination of flavors.
Peach doughnuts
This vegan recipe looks so good! Peaches in a donut?? YES!
Summer peach crisp
We make this every summer, it is so delicious! The peaches are the perfect addition for this summer treat.
DIY peach mask for face
Peaches contain a variety of benefits for your skin and can be used in many ways. I love making a peach mask for my skin. Here is an easy recipe to follow!
Homemade peach scrub
I love homemade scrubs. Using peaches to make a summer scrub is such a fun idea! This recipe looks amazing and super easy too.
Peach glazed salmon
Salmon goes great with the flavor of peaches! I have made this recipe before, and we loved it! So fresh and summery.
Summer salad with peaches
In the summer, adding fresh fruit to salads is the best. I love to add cut up peaches to a big chicken salad. It is even better when the peaches are really ripe too!
This recipe from Eating Well looks really good too with feta and mint Vinaigrette.
These are all my favorites so far, but I will add more to this list as I find new fun things to do with peaches this summer, so be sure to save it!!
Happy peach season!

I love peaches! They are just coming into the farmers market. Do you prefer the yellow or white flesh ones? I like both varieties but veer towards the white. I love these ideas. I would like to make the jam and the cobbler, maybe a pie. Getting hungry… ?

I love the yellow flesh ones best I think! Both are good though. And they are so delicious baked 🙂
