Easy Peach Jam Cream Cheese & Cracker Board
I remember as a little girl looking forward to visits to Mae Mae’s home in Atlanta. She always served a soft block of cream cheese with some type of jam, jelly, or preserve and a savory cracker. I knew my mother would only allow a polite small serving as it was important to use good manners. Believe me when I tell you, I could have eaten the entire thing. Even the visits with green pepper jelly on top.

Easy Peach Jam Cream Cheese & Cracker Board
Ingredients
- 1 block cream cheese
- peach jam or your favorite jam, jelly, or preserves
- 2 two peaches, sliced and core removed.
- favorite crackers | toasts (I used Fine Cheese Company Toasts. I pick them up at Fresh Market, Whole Foods, and Amazon Grocery.)
Instructions
Form the cream cheese into a ball and use the back of a spoon or scoop to make a well in the top of the cream cheese. (I pressed the cream cheese into a large #5 scoop and then used the back to make the well.) Placing the block of cream cheese directly on the board and using the back of a spoon to create a well is an option too. 😉
Arrange sliced peaches and the crackers around the cream cheese.
That is it! Enjoy!
