Ingredients
Scale
Toasted Oats
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp) unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Honey Peaches
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp) unsalted butter
- 4 peaches, halved or quartered
- 8 scoops of vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- In a stainless steel or cast iron skillet set over medium heat, toast the oats for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add the 1/4 cup of butter and stir so the oats are evenly coated.
- Add the 1/2 cup brown sugar and stir again to coat.
- Let cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sugar and oats have caramelized.
- Remove to a plate or sheet pan and spread in an even layer.
- Sprinkle with the 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp cinnamon and stir to coat.
- In the same pan over medium high heat, place the 3/4 cup honey.
- Stir frequently for 3-5 minutes, until the honey is thin and fragrant.
- Add the 1/4 cup butter and continue stirring. The honey should darken and thicken, caramelizing in the process.
- Add the peaches flesh side down and cook for 2 minutes on each side. If your peaches are pretty firm, cook 4 minutes each side.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- In stemless wine glasses or small bowls layer about 1/4 cup of the toasted oats (reserve a pinch for sprinkling on top), a scoop of vanilla ice cream, then half or two quarters of a peach.
- Spoon some honey on top and then sprinkle with the reserved oats.
