Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 peaches
  • 3 Tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 3 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Halve and pit peaches, then place into a deep dish flat side up (I used a loaf pan).
  3. Mix coconut oil (3 Tbsp), maple syrup (3 Tbsp), cinnamon (2 tsps), , vanilla (1 tsp), ground cloves (1/2 tsp), nutmeg (1/4 tsp), and salt (pinch) in a small dish.
  4. Pour the oil/spices/syrup mixture over the peaches, allowing the extra liquid to spill over to the bottom of the dish.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes -- until peaches are warm, fragrant, and slightly soft.
  6. Serve warm with an extra drizzle of maple syrup, vegan vanilla ice cream, or completely by themselves!
  7. Best when fresh, but will keep in the refrigerator in a sealed container for 2-3 days. Recommend reheating once cold for best results.

Notes

If you're serving them by themselves, I highly recommend scooping the extra spice/oil mixture out of the bottom of the dish and spooning it back over the top of the peaches to get the most of all that flavor goodness.
