I love cooked fruit because it has an amazing natural sweetness. There is no need to add a lot of sugar to make a cooked fruit dessert yummy! This recipe utilizes agave syrup too, which has a lower glycemic index. This means that this ingredient will not spike blood sugar levels as much as regular sugar.

Not only is this dish low in sugar, but there is also no saturated fat! I used oil in the topping instead of butter. Don’t you worry, though; this is dish is still FULL OF FLAVOR! Paired with a delicious scoop of vanilla ice cream, this dessert is a great treat without having to feel guilty.

Filling Ingredients:

3 Very Ripe Large Peaches - cut into thin wedges
