How to Make Brandied Peach Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup brandy (or peach/apricot nectar), 1 cup peach preserves, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add 2 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches. Simmer gently for 3-5 minutes, or until the peaches are tender but still hold their shape.
  4. Carefully remove the cooked peaches from the saucepan using a slotted spoon and set aside in a bowl.
  5. Continue to cook the remaining syrup over medium-low heat for 8-10 minutes, or until it has thickened considerably and coats the back of a spoon.
  6. Gently fold the cooked peaches back into the thickened syrup. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  7. Serve the brandied peach sauce warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Enjoy!
