Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 whole fresh peaches
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 pieces whole cloves
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash and peel the peaches. If desired, slice them in half and remove the pits, or cut them into quarters for smaller pieces.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
Add the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and whole cloves to the saucepan. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Gently add the prepared peaches to the saucepan, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid.
Reduce the heat to low and let the peaches simmer for 15 minutes, occasionally spooning the spiced syrup over them to ensure an even coating.
After 15 minutes, stir in the vanilla extract and lemon juice. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, then remove the pan from heat.
Allow the peaches to cool slightly in the syrup before transferring them to a serving dish or airtight container.
Serve warm over ice cream, pancakes, or oatmeal, or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat as needed before serving.
