Peachy Cream Cheese

Guess this will be Phase 3 of the basket of peaches.....and I think the final phase. The rest of the peaches will be sliced/chopped and frozen for future use (probably in pancakes).  I had a piece of this last night after it cooled a bit and it was good. I had a piece for breakfast (sometimes it's fun being an adult!) and it was even better!  A yummy & different way to use peaches!

PEACHY CREAM CHEESE
Using Neufchatel Cream Cheese: 9 Servings = 4 PointsPlus™
                                                                         6 Servings = 5 PointsPlus™
Using Fat Free Cream Cheese: 9 Servings = 2 PointsPlus™
                                                                        6 Servings = 4 PointsPlus™


3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 (4 serving) package vanilla pudding mix (NOT instant)
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup fat-free egg substitute
1/2 cup fat-free milk
3 TBSP light butter, melted
2 cups pitted, peeled, sliced peaches
1/4 cup peach juice
1/2 cup Splenda granulated
1 TBSP Splenda granulated
1/2 TBSP cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350ยบ. Spray an 8x8x2 baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix flour, pudding mix and baking powder together. Set aside.



In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the egg substitute, milk and melted butter; combine this with the flour mixture. Pour batter into pan. Arrange sliced peaches onto batter.









In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese, 1/2 cup Splenda granulated and peach juice. Carefully spread on the peaches. Sprinkle with 1 TBSP Splenda granulated and cinnamon.









Bake for 45 minutes. Cool on rack and then refrigerate.



MY SPIN: I used the Neufchatel Cream Cheese in this for the texture and flavor. This recipe originally called for canned peaches but I used fresh peaches and 'squeezed' some of the not-so-pretty ones to get the juice. And, of course, I didn't measure the cinnamon.....I just sprinkled some on top.



Now for the 'legal mumbo-jumbo' to keep me out of court!! *** The PointsPlus™ value for this recipe was calculated by me (Jan Gomes) and is not an endorsement or approval of this recipe by Weight Watchers International, Inc., the owner of the PointsPlus™ registered trademark. ***

Later!
