Instructions

Allow cream cheese to soften at room temperature for easy mixing.
Peel and dice peaches into small chunks. If using canned or frozen peaches, drain thoroughly.
In a medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese with honey, vanilla extract, salt, and optional lemon juice until smooth.
Gently fold in diced peaches, keeping some texture.
Taste and adjust sweetness or tang with more honey or lemon juice if desired.
Transfer to a serving dish or airtight container. Chill for 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

Add cinnamon or nutmeg for a spiced variation.

Stir in chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.

Purée peaches before mixing for a smooth version.

Swap peaches with nectarines or apricots if preferred.

Store in the fridge for up to 5 days. Not ideal for freezing due to texture changes.
