This is an easy and delicious way to prepare ripe peaches. High-pectin fruit like peaches is actually more digestible when cooked than raw. Serves 4. 

Ingredients

• 4 ripe organic peaches
• 4 Tbsp melted butter
• 2-3 Tbsp maple sugar, sucanat or palm sugar

Instructions 

1. Brush 7-by-11 pyrex pan with melted butter. Cut peaches in half, remove pits and place in pyrex pan, skin side down. Spoon butter over peaches and sprinkle with natural sugar.
2. Bake at 350°F about 30 minutes, then turn on broiler for 3-5 minutes.
3. Turn peaches over (right in the pan) and remove skins. They should be loose, so you can just pick them off.
4. Divide peaches among 4 serving dishes and pour pan juice over them. May be served with cream, whipped cream, creme fraiche or homemade vanilla ice cream.
