Ingredients

• 4 whole ripe peaches
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
• 1 optional whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Wash the peaches thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut each peach in half and remove the pit.

Step 3

Arrange the peach halves cut-side up in a baking dish, ensuring they are snugly placed but not overlapping.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, whisk in the honey, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and fragrant.

Step 5

Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over each peach half, ensuring the tops and cavities are coated.

Step 6

Sprinkle a small pinch of granulated sugar over each peach half for added caramelization.

Step 7

Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the peaches are tender and slightly golden on the edges. Baste the peaches with the sauce from the baking dish halfway through cooking.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.

Step 9

Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired. Enjoy your Baked Vanilla Peaches!
