Waffles with Peach Topping are a delicious breakfast treat! Use fresh or frozen peaches to make a quick and EASY topping for your favorite waffle!
Every now and then, I enjoy waffles as a breakfast treat. By every now and then, I mean every couple of months. I WISH I could eat waffles more often, but that would not help me keep my “girlish figure” (**snort, snort, cough, cough) BUT… when I do have one, I sure enjoy Belgian waffles with homemade peach topping and a giant dollop of whipped cream.
If you enjoy waffles, be sure to try my recipes for Banana Nut Waffles or Pumpkin Spice Waffles. They’re equally yummy, easy to prepare, and I am confident you will enjoy them, as well!

Is It Difficult To Make The Peach Topping?
The quick answer to this question is No! It’s really easy to make a delicious peach topping for waffles! It’s as simple as peeling and slicing peaches, and gently cooking them with the other ingredients for about 5 minutes.
Once heated and sauce is thickened, pile it (or delicately spoon it) onto a cooked waffle! If you’re feeling rather adventurous, dollop it with some whipped cream. YUMMO! There’s nothing better than breakfast waffles with peach topping!
What Kind Of Waffles?
The type of waffle you use truly doesn’t matter. Use a favorite prepared mix to make your own, or use frozen waffles, if that’s easiest for you on a busy morning. I like to use my Belgian waffle maker and almost always use a prepared mix. In the time it takes to mix the batter, and cook a couple waffles, the peach topping is basically cooked and ready to go!
Can You Use FROZEN Peaches To Make This Topping?
I prefer to use fresh, ripe summer peaches to make the topping, but if they are out of season, YES, you can substitute frozen peaches. If you’re going to use FROZEN peaches, be sure to slightly decrease the water amount called for in the recipe.
PLEASE NOTE: The caloric calculation in the printable recipe below is for the peach topping only (per serving), since there is no way to know what kinds of waffles people will be using (frozen/homemade, etc.)
Try This Peach Topping On Cake – YUM!
By the way… this peach topping is also WONDERFUL over slices of pound cake or angel food cake. I’ve been making this topping for years and years, and think you will LOVE it! Hope you will consider trying this recipe for waffles with peach topping.

Waffles with Peach Topping are a delicious breakfast treat! Use fresh or frozen peaches to make a quick and EASY topping for your favorite waffle!
- 1/2 cup water
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 4-5 large peaches (peeled, pitted and thinly sliced - a total of about 4 cups of sliced fruit)
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Whisk the water, granulated sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch together in a large saucepan (or large skillet). Bring these ingredients to a full boil on medium heat, stirring often. (If using frozen peaches, do not thaw, but remember to slightly decrease the amount of water used). Mixture should thicken slightly.
- Add the peach slices and cinnamon. Stir to combine; cook on low for approximately 4-5 minutes, until heated through, and peaches have softened up slightly. Remove from heat.
- Prepare waffles (using mix or your own recipe). Sprinkle cooked waffle with sifted powdered sugar, if desired.
- Spoon peach topping over the top of waffle. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.
PLEASE NOTE: The caloric calculation is for the peach topping only. This is because there are so many kinds of waffles (homemade/frozen) that may be used, that it would be impossible to accurately report. This topping is also delicious over slices of pound cake or angel food cake.
