4 peaches, halved, stones removed
1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Vanilla ice cream and crushed shortbread biscuits, to serve

Salted caramel sauce

150g caster sugar

Method

1.

For the sauce, melt sugar in a saucepan over medium heat (do not stir), swirling pan until a golden caramel forms. Remove pan from heat and carefully add cream and butter (mixture may spatter). Return to a low heat and stir for 30 seconds or until smooth. Set aside to cool.

Preheat a chargrill pan to medium. Brush cut sides of peaches with maple syrup, then cook, cut-side down, for 3-4 minutes until tender and caramelised.
3.

Meanwhile, whisk cream, icing sugar and cinnamon to stiff peaks.

Serve peaches with ice cream, whipped cream, salted caramel and biscuit crumbs.
