Description

This quick and easy maple-peach sauce is great for ice cream but tastes equally good on french toast, waffles, or granola.

Ingredients

3 ripe peaches
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup real maple syrup
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg

Directions

1 Cut each peach in half, remove pit, and cut each half into 6 slices.
2 Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until slightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Place peach slices into the butter, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 3 minutes, turning carefully. Add maple syrup, lemon zest, and nutmeg to the pot and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes.
3 Allow to cool slightly before serving.
