Questions about Canned peach
Do you need to drain canned peaches before using them?
Drain them for fruit salad, toppings and most baking so the extra liquid does not make the dish watery. Save the juice or syrup for a smoothie, or spoon a little over yoghurt or porridge.
How do you make a quick peach crumble with canned peaches?
Drain the peaches and put them in a baking dish; scatter over a crumble topping of flour, butter and sugar. Bake at 190 °C for about 25–30 minutes, until the topping is golden and the fruit is bubbling.
How should you store canned peaches after opening?
Transfer the peaches and any liquid to a covered container and refrigerate; use them within 3–4 days. Don’t store them in the opened can.
Can you freeze canned peaches?
Yes. Drain them, spread the pieces on a tray to freeze separately, then pack them into a freezer-safe container. They soften after thawing, so use them in smoothies, sauces or baking rather than expecting a firm texture.
What should you look for when buying canned peaches?
Choose halves or slices according to how you plan to use them, and pick peaches packed in juice or water when you want less added sweetness than fruit in syrup. The can should be intact, without bulges, leaks or deep dents.
What can you use instead of canned peaches in a crumble?
Canned pears work well in the same quantity and need draining too; they have 2.7 g of fibre per 100 g, compared with 1.2 g in canned peach. For fresh peaches, peel and slice them, and allow extra baking time for the fruit to soften.
How much canned peach is a typical serving?
Half a peach is about 73 g and provides 53 kcal. Drain it first if you want the portion to be fruit alone rather than fruit with its packing liquid.
