Crockpot Monday: Peach Compote

I'm still dreaming of a balmy Spring and a mild Summer. What? A girl can dream, can't she? Speaking of warmer months, don't peaches scream Summer? I know that fresh ones are near impossible to find this time of year, so if you can't find any, hold onto this one and with any luck, they'll be back in your local produce section soon!

Peach Compote:

Ingredients:
3 to 4 fresh peaches (I used 3 large ones)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup brandy
2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions: 

Use your 1.5 quart crockpot for this recipe.

Wash and slice your peaches. Put them into your crockpot. Cover with the brown sugar, brandy, the 2T of butter, and the cinnamon and vanilla.

Cover and cook for about 90 minutes to 2 hours.

Serve over vanilla ice cream.

* I haven't tried it, but this recipe may turn out just as well using frozen peach slices that you've allowed to thaw.
