Start by washing and drying the fresh peaches. Slice each peach in half and remove the pit. If desired, peel the peaches for a softer texture or leave the skin on for added color and texture.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.
Add the dry white wine to the egg yolk mixture and whisk briefly to combine.
Prepare a double boiler by bringing a small pot of water to a gentle simmer. Place the mixing bowl over the pot, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Using a handheld whisk or an electric hand mixer on low speed, continuously whisk the egg mixture over the simmering water. Keep whisking until the mixture thickens and triples in volume, about 8-10 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it holds soft peaks and is creamy and frothy.
Remove the sabayon from the heat and continue whisking for another minute to cool it slightly.
Place the peach halves on a serving plate or in individual dessert bowls, cut side up.
Spoon the warm sabayon evenly over the peach halves, coating the top generously.
Optionally, garnish each serving with a fresh mint leaf for a pop of color and added freshness.
Serve immediately while the sabayon is still warm and enjoy!
