Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

½ cup fresh mint leaves, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: 1/2 cup mascarpone or vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Instructions
 

Start by preheating a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

    Melt the butter in the skillet and swirl it around to coat the bottom.

      Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt, stirring until the sugar dissolves and begins to bubble.

        Carefully place the peach halves cut side down in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until they are caramelized and golden brown.

          Gently flip the peaches over and drizzle the vanilla extract over them. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until soft.

            Remove the peaches from the skillet and place them on a serving platter.

              Spoon the remaining caramel sauce from the skillet over the peaches, and sprinkle with chopped mint leaves.

                Serve warm, optionally accompanied by a dollop of mascarpone or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
