Photo: Peach Cornbread Trifle Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 pounds very ripe peaches
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pound cornbread either store-bought or homemade
Directions
Score the bottom of peaches with an "X." Remove the skins of the peaches by dropping them in a pot of simmering water for 30 to 60 seconds. Remove the peaches, set aside to cool in a bowl of ice water and then peel off the loosened skins. Remove the pits from the peaches and then finely chop the flesh. Put the chopped peaches in a bowl.
Pour the cream into a large mixing bowl. Add a 1/4 cup sugar and the vanilla extract. Whip into soft peaks.
Cut the corn bread into thin slices. Layer the bottom of a clear glass trifle or other serving bowl with a third of the cornbread. Add a third of the peaches on top of the cornbread and then a third of the whipped cream on top of that. Repeat the layers two more times and crumble the final layer of the cornbread on top.
Refrigerate and serve cold.

I brought this to a barbeque, and shall we just say, "they worshipped at my feet"? I added a layer of pudding, as suggested in other reviews, and I think it was a good call. A BIG hit!!!

I made this for a pot-luck at a church Bible Study Brunch.
First of all...it is insanely easy!!
Second...it looks amazing!!
Third...the taste is terrific!!
Fourth...6 women asked me to marry them!?!
Everyone said it tasted better the next day....so I made it a day early.
I used frozen peaches which were just fine.
I added in a few blueberries and raspberries to each layer to add a little color.
I made some vanilla pudding (sugar-free and put 1/3 on the top of each layer of cornbread.
I saved a few slices of peach and some berries to decorate the top along with a sprig or two of mint and...voila! A masterpiece.
Thanks for this recipe!

i made this for our annual family thanksgiving dinner, and it was a big hit! although it takes some time to make, the outcome is well worth the work. i followed another reviewer's advice, and added a layer of vanilla pudding to moisten up the cake. i can't wait to make this again.
