What type of peaches should I use?

Here's the good news: similar to our Peaches and Cream Steel Cut Oats , any variety of peach will work ! Just keep in mind, the riper the better. If you find yourself working with peaches that are firm and not at their peak ripeness, panic not. You can just add a bit more sugar to the peach filling to compensate.

Can I use canned peaches?

While I have never actually used canned peaches for this recipe, I have read from other sources that it works to use them. I'd suggest draining the peaches of their juice before any of the steps below.

Do I have to peel the peaches?

Whether you peel the peaches or not is a matter of preference. I never do. It doesn't affect the flavor either way. The skin brings a pop of color and touch more nutrition, so I choose to not peel my peaches. Plus it takes a lot of extra time to peel 5 peaches. So... no thanks to that option.
