In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the diced peaches, sugar (or sweetener), cornstarch, water, and lemon juice.
Stir the mixture thoroughly until the cornstarch dissolves and the ingredients are well combined.
Place the bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 2 minutes.
Remove the bowl and stir the mixture to ensure even cooking.
Return the bowl to the microwave and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and the peaches soften.
Allow the sauce to cool for a few minutes, as it will thicken slightly as it cools.
Serve warm or chilled as a topping for pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or yogurt.
