Ingredients:

  • 4 ripe peaches (approx. 2 lbs / 900g), pitted and sliced into thick wedges
  • 1 tsp (5ml) lemon juice
  • 1 pinch (0.5g) salt
  • 2 tbsp (28g) unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp (35g) light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ tsp (1g) ground cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Pat the peach slices dry with a paper towel and toss them gently in a bowl with the lemon juice and salt.
  2. Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until it begins to foam.
  3. Place the peach wedges cut-side down in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until a mahogany-colored crust develops.
  4. Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon evenly over the peaches, then gently flip the slices.
  5. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sugar melts into a thick, glossy syrup; remove from heat immediately.
