Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise and scraped, or 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 firm, ripe peaches (1 to 1 1/2 pounds total), halved and pitted
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1 package (5 to 6 ounces) raspberries

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large, shallow baking dish, combine butter, lemon juice, sugar, and vanilla bean (seeds and pod). Add peaches, and turn to coat with butter mixture; arrange, cut side down, in a single layer.
2. Roast until peaches are tender and cooking liquid is syrupy, 15 to 25 minutes, brushing with cooking liquid halfway through. Serve peaches (warm or at room temperature) with ice cream and raspberries; drizzle with cooking liquid.

Cook's Notes

You can trade 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for the vanilla bean. To use the bean, split pod lengthwise, and with the tip of a paring knife, scrape seeds into the dish. If the liquid in the bottom of the baking dish is too thick to drizzle, simply whisk in 1 to 2 tablespoons warm water.

I cut up the fruit into segments because the peaches were not as good as I would have liked. Used brown sugar and added that to the butter I melted in the oven as it was warming up. So very easy to out together! Instead of raspberries I used fresh blueberries that I had on hand. Tossed them in before serving the fruit on top of ice cream. This was a company dessert and I made it again because it was so luscious.

It's useless to post a recipe when the perma-popup for body soul obscures the ingredients.

If you go to Recipe Finder and search for the recipe, the pop ups don't display. I guess they are trying to get you to subscribe to the magazine.

Frustrating pop-ups for MS magazines, flowers etc. cover the recipe with no means of closing them! Maddening! Even going to the ad and coming back to the recipe doesn't solve the problem.

I made this with mangos instead, and it came out absolutely deliciously.
