How to Make Broiled Peaches With Cookie Crumb Topping

  1. Preheat your broiler.
  2. In a medium bowl, gently toss together 4 ripe peaches (halved and pitted), 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture to a buttered oven-safe baking dish. Arrange the peach halves in a single layer.
  4. Broil the peaches 6 inches from the heat source for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly softened. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. While the peaches are broiling, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup crushed cookie crumbs (from your favorite cookies!).
  6. Sprinkle the cookie crumb topping evenly over the broiled peaches.
  7. Broil for 1-2 minutes more, or until the topping is lightly golden brown and the sugar is bubbly. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Divide between two dessert dishes and serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (optional).
