Ingredients
  • 8 large ripe peaches (4 lbs ) peeled and cut into wedges
  • 3 Tbsp. light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp. course salt
  • 6 Tbsp. cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces
  • ¼ tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • vanilla ice cream for serving
  • 1 Tbsp balsamic syrup for serving
Instructions
  1. Preheat the broiler on high positioning oven rack about 5" from the heat. In a large bowl toss the peaches with the brown sugar until coated and arrange pieces on baking sheet in a single layer. Broil the peaches about 15 minutes, turning half way through, until the sugar starts to caramelize. Be careful not to over cook - you do not want the peaches to start to blacken or they will have a charred taste. Let the peaches cool a bit and reduce the heat in the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Meanwhile in another large bowl combine the flour, granulated sugar and salt. Add the butter and the vanilla - work the mixture with your fingers to create a crumbly dough. Refrigerate the crumb topping.
  3. In a bowl, combine the cooled peaches with the lemon juice. Divide the mixture between six 8 ounce ramekins. Sprinkle with the crumb topping and bake until golden and the fruit is bubbly - about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5-8 minutes, serve with vanilla ice cream and drizzle with balsamic syrup (or thick, aged balsamic vinegar).
Notes
The key to this recipe's success is not to over cook the peaches and not to over use the balsamic syrup (1 Tbsp or slightly less per serving is enough to give a great flavor and not over power).
