Pretty Much Fat Free Peach Dumplings

Submitted by ladypit

"My kids and I went peach picking and had a ton of wonderful peaches to use up! This is a recipe I found somewhere on line and tweaked a bunch. It is still high sugar, but is low fat. It also is not the prettiest looking dessert I have ever seen. But it is homey comfort food that tastes great! I actually used 1/3 cup splenda and 2/3 cup sugar with great results. Also, we used the 2 cups of peaches specified in the original recipe. But my husband said that next time he would like more peaches. (He ate most of it in 1 sitting so he definitely liked it, but I will try more peaches next time for him!)"

VERY EASY and VERY YUMMY! I used fresh halved apriums from my tree and they were WONDERFUL cooked in this! My only problem was that the sugar syrup boiled over at one point. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

I have had this recipe marked since March 28, 2006. Peaches have finally come into season and I got to make this wonderful recipe. I did increase the amount of peaches and used a little less milk than called for. This was served warm and topped with low-fat vanilla yogurt.
