Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Peaches Sweet and juicy, the star of the dish.
  • 2 tablespoons Butter Adds richness and depth to the flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Enhances the natural sweetness and provides warmth.
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar Helps caramelize the peaches for a delectable crust.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Adds a beautiful aromatic note.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by washing the peaches thoroughly and cutting them in half. Remove the pits.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter, allowing it to melt completely.
  2. Add the peach halves to the skillet, cut side down. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until they get a golden-brown crust.
  3. Flip the peaches and sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar over the top. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  4. Pour a splash of vanilla extract over the peaches, allowing it to mix in as they cook for another minute.
  5. Remove from heat and serve warm.

Notes

Choose ripe peaches for the best sweetness and texture. For a lighter version, substitute butter with coconut oil. Experiment with spices like nutmeg or ginger for a flavor boost. Use a non-stick skillet for easier cleanup and even cooking. Prep the peaches ahead of time to save time on busy nights.
