Baked Georgia Peaches

Summertime in Atlanta means fresh, juicy peaches are in plentiful supply. While a good fresh peach stands up on it's own, we've taken to baking our latest bushel in the TurboChef oven for a wonderful, simple dessert to end the evening.

Prep is simple. Cut two or three peaches in half and remove the pits. Drizzle with a little spiced rum, brown sugar, cinnamon and chopped walnuts. Don't bother peeling the peaches as the skin will separate during cooking. Place the peaches in an 8" x 8" baking pan and cook under the Roast > Vegetables > Roast Vegetables > 1 Pound setting. In less than three minutes (I take them out at the 80% chime) you'll have beautifully caramelized, warm and luscious roasted peaches. They are good on their own but I can't resist topping them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A down home Southern taste treat that couldn't be easier.
