Fresh Broiled Peaches with delicious Black Cherry Preserve & topped with a creamy Creme Fraiche. This combination is amazing with soft and tender peaches caramelized with the cherry jam on the broiler for 6 to 10 minutes.
The concentration of peach and cherry flavors come through because L’Epicurien Black Cherry Jam, which is available in our online shop, tastes heavenly. This cherry jam is made with varieties from the Bigarreau cherry family, known for their exceptional taste qualities. The Bigarreau cherries are heart-shaped cherries with hard, crisp and sweet flesh. This jam has bountiful quantities to get as many beautiful and juicy morello cherries in every jar. Doesn’t that sound good?
Top Broiled Peaches with Creme Fraiche
The final decadent touch of this peaches dish is a spoonful of Creme Fraiche. If you can’t find Creme Fraiche, use sour cream instead. Another option is ricotta cheese.
What else can I do with Black Cherry Preserve?
If you have some left-over Black Cherry Jam from this broiled peaches recipe, get some bread, toast it, add some ricotta cheese, and top with the cherry preserve. This will make a great appetizer for your next get-together or for brunch or breakfast.

Hi Lisa, Thank you for stopping by. The Black Cherry Preserve IS amazing and Like to eat it on toast with Ricotta cheese and the cherry jam on top.

I can imagine these flavors in pie. And with the creme fraiche on the side, too.
Carlos Leo says
Katherine, you just gave me an excellent idea. I will put it on my list for recipes to make. Do you have a good pie recipe that you want to share?
Katherine|Wanderspice says
No, I’m a horrible baker and only make a really good cheesecake. But wait! those flavors could work in a cheesecake, too. I’ll email you.

This is the perfect summer dessert! Fresh cherries just popped up here at the market in NYC so i’ll have to pick some up to try!

Hi Erin. YES, pick some up. It’s cherry season (and peach season). We have learned a lot the last year or so on when different fruits are in season.
Daniela says
OMG. Wine, cherries, stone fruit, AND creme fraiche in one dessert. This is like a dream come true. I can’t wait to buy some peaches this weekend so that I can make it.
Carlos Leo says
Daniela, let us know if you get to make it this weekend. If you have a grill at home, it will taste even better and pretty with the grill marks.
