Peach Tapioca Bake

A tapioca dessert recipe with peaches and spices.

INGREDIENTS:

• 3/4 cup pearl tapioca
• 2 1/2 cups boiling water
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract
• 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
• 8 large fresh peaches
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

PREPARATION:

Soak pearl tapioca overnight in enough water to cover. Drain soaked tapioca the next day. Put boiling water into top of double boiler over hot water; add soaked tapioca. Cook over hot water for about 15 minutes, until tapioca is transparent. Quickly stir in flavoring, salt, and 1/2 cup of the sugar.

Meanwhile, peel peaches, remove pits, and cut into halves. Place in a generously buttered baking dish. Sprinkle peaches with remaining 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes.

Pour cooked tapioca over peaches, moving peaches a bit to move some tapioca under them. Return baking dish to the oven and continue baking at 350° for 20 minutes. Serve peach tapioca warm or cold with whipped cream or whipped topping.
Tapioca dessert recipe serves 6 to 8.
