Hot Curried Georgia Peaches
Serve these Hot Curried Georgia Peaches along with pound cake and butter pecan ice cream for a delightfully different dessert.
Hot Curried Georgia Peaches is a different spin on an old southern recipe for curried fruit that makes an appearance on many holiday tables throughout the south.
I’ve changed it up a bit to use only peaches and instead of serving it as a side dish, I’ve moved it to the dessert course and am serving it with butter pecan ice cream and pound cake. It’s a fabulous combination that I hope you’ll try!
How to Make Hot Curried Georgia Peaches
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Place the frozen peach slices and pecans in a 9×13 baking dish.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Remove the pan from the heat, add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined.
Sprinkle over the peaches and pecans.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring gently every 10-15 minutes.
For each serving, place a slice of pound cake on the plate or in a bowl. Top with a scoop of butter pecan ice cream and hot curried peaches.

I love the touch of curry in this peach topping – brilliant!
I’ve never thought to try curry with peaches, it sounds incredibly delicious!! I’m always wishing I lived next door to you!
Sometimes I wish blogs came with samples :) Love peaches and this sounds delicious.
Wouldn’t that be great, Kelly!? Though, I’d want to “sample” all day long!
I love putting tried fruit in my curry dishes but have never thought to actually put curry powder on my fruit! This sounds so delicious and I bet it tastes amazing.
I have a peach tree that has been throwing peaches at me like crazy – can’t wait to try this!! :)
This would be a great way to use some of your excess harvest, Ashley.
Got a ton of peaches at the market this weekend! Gotta make this!
I do hope you’ll try it and enjoy it, Angie.
Love this! It looks so comforting and delish.
Thanks for the compliment, Ali.
Wow – love the idea of adding curry to the sweet and spicy peaches! Genius!
Thanks so much, Martha!
Girl, you just took peaches to a whole new level. Swoon.
I hope you’ll give this a try, Paula. I know you’d like it!
Absolutely delightful. I have only heard about Georgia peaches, so can only imagine the flavor. But I suppose Palisade peaches from colorado might also suffice !
I’ve often heard that Colorado peaches are delicious, but I love our Georgia produce!
I’d do anything to get my hand on a Georgia peach again!
They are wonderful, aren’t they?
This is the absolute quintessential southern dish and I cannot wait to try it. I love the use of savory seasonings in sweet desserts and adding curry to peaches is sheer brilliance!
Why thank you, Jane. Curry powder is often included in southern recipes. It’s a legacy from the days when ships sailing the spice route came into the ports in Savannah and Charleston.
You know, we have been cooking a variation on this baked fruit since we were old enough to reach the countertops. Folks are sometimes a bit “stand-off” when they first hear “curried.” But it is my impression that when they taste the dish and find out that the spice is really just to add depth and warmth, they really enjoy it. I know I do!

You’re right! You might not think it, but the curry powder is perfect with fruit.
I have been looking forward to this one since you posted the recipe title, Lana! This is such a lovely dish–I can almost taste it. And I will be tasting it, because I need to make this. =)
I do hope you enjoy it, Jenni.
Oh my goodness, this sounds heavenly!
It is quite good if I do say so myself, Stephanie!
What a scrumptious peach topping! Perfect component to make a fabulous summer dessert!
Thank you, Liz. It is a topping but I could just eat it right by itself!
