“Pesche con gli Amaretti” (baked peaches with amaretti cookies) has always been one of my favorite Italian desserts. And these Paleo Baked Stuffed Peaches are perfect allergy free recreation of that delicious dish: quick, easy and extremely satisfying!

This treat is especially convenient to prepare at the end of the summer, when peaches are going out of season and they don’t taste as great to be eaten raw but are still amazing to be stuffed and baked!

While usually “Pesche con gli Amaretti” are stuffed with prune jam, cacao powder and Amaretti cookies (I am not talking about the soft cookies dusted with powder sugar that you guys might know. These are crunchy little pastries made with bitter almonds), this paleo version replaces all that with ingredients that are also compliant with the Auto Immune Protocol.

Like you will see in the procedure, combining carob powder, coconut flour some peach pulp, coconut milk and honey will allow you to recreate the perfect paleo stuffing for your baked peaches… and that touch of mint on top makes them be even more irresistible!

I love to eat these warm out of the oven, when I can collect the caramelized peach juice on the bottom of the casserole and scoop it on top of my baked peaches to give them an extra mouthwatering kick!
But, this is a dish you can refrigerate and eat whenever you want as it lasts a couple days and it’s good even cold!
