How to Make Baked Peaches With Pine Nuts

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the white wine and granulated sugar until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Place the peach halves, cavity-side up, on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  4. Pour the wine mixture evenly into the cavity of each peach half.
  5. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the peaches are tender and slightly caramelized.
  6. While the peaches are baking, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat.
  7. Add the pine nuts to the melted butter and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and fragrant.
  8. To serve, place two peach halves on each plate.
  9. Top each serving with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the toasted pine nuts.
  10. Serve immediately with your choice of vanilla ice cream, mascarpone, crème fraîche, or vegan whipped topping.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
