How to Make Peaches Foster

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Stir constantly and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Carefully remove the skillet from the heat. Pour in 2 tablespoons of dark rum and 1 tablespoon of peach schnapps. **Carefully** ignite the mixture using a long match or kitchen lighter. (Adult supervision required).
  4. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and allow the flames to die out completely.
  5. Add 4 cups of sliced fresh peaches. Gently toss to coat in the sauce and cook for 1 minute until heated through.
  6. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  7. While the peaches cool, scoop 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream into individual bowls. Spoon the warm peaches and sauce over the ice cream and serve immediately.
