At that point, there are three options.
Simply go without.

10. Peach Salsa
A fruit-based salsa made this list of recipes with canned peaches and I for one am ecstatic about that!
Salsa can and is served year-round and who knew how wonderfully well peaches and limes go together!
Salsa can go with chips or tacos but also on chicken or fish beautifully!
Typical ingredients for sure, so dicing is the name of the game!
Be sure to make at least an hour ahead so the flavors can be fully incorporated.

The cream cheese layer is cream cheese, powdered sugar, and whipped topping.
Altogether it is a beautiful, slice and serves salad dessert!
Multiple variations exist between any canned peaches recipe.
So, if some recipes seem to be overlapping it is probably because at some point they are.
This recipe reminds me more of a bread pudding-style creation.
The base is a cubed butter cake.
The custard layer is made of milk, eggs, vanilla, and sugar, and half is poured over the cake cubes to soak.
Then rest is added with sliced peaches placed on top.
The extra treat is the heavy cream and sugar mixture drizzled on top before baking.

It begins with a graham cracker crust.
The filling is made of cream cheese, sugar, and milk.
Peaches are placed on top and a glaze with strawberries is the final layer.
It serves up best after four hours of chilling.
15. Peach Dump Cake
When easy is your preferred skill level for canned peach dessert recipes, this one most definitely fits the criteria.
All that must be done is to add ingredients one on top of the other.
First peaches, next one can with liquid and one without, then cinnamon with a dry cake mix (that does not have pudding mix in it) and finally melted butter.
No stirring.
Just add layers and bake!
Here is one of the rare entree recipes using canned peaches.
It starts with salmon which pairs perfectly with peaches and adds whole grain mustard for some flair!

Served on rice for a complete and delightful dish!
17. Peach Crumble
Each one of these canned peach recipes has a little something unique giving each a flavor that sets it apart.
This one has a decidedly citrus flavor which brightens up the sweet peaches a lot!
It starts differently with the peaches being coated in brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch.
Then the topping includes oats, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, melted butter, lemon and lime juice, and zest.
After sprinkling this mixture on top of the peaches it is ready to bake until nicely browned.
Gotta love recipes with canned peaches using them in fresh salads!

Different and delicious!
19. Peach Crumb Bars
Here we have peach bars with an oatmeal crust, a canned peaches filling, and a crumb topping.
Again, similar ingredients as many others, but combined or layered differently.
The thick old fashioned oatmeal mixture is pressed into the bottom of the baking dish.
The seasoned peaches are placed on top with the rest of the crumble mixture to bake!
Allow to fully cool before slicing!
20. Peach Fritters
Something different is headed our way with this canned peaches recipe!
Fritters!
You know, those deep-fried, bite-sized morsels of deliciousness!
Here they have peaches in the dough which fries up soft inside with a crispy outside that is dusted with powdered sugar.
The key to success with these is to keep the oil temperature steady so the fritters cook evenly.
