Instructions
Creating baked peaches is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Peaches: Halve the peaches and remove the pits. Arrange them cut-side up in a baking dish.
3. Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, oats, chopped nuts, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
4. Stuff the Peaches: Spoon the filling mixture evenly into the center of each peach half.
5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the peaches are tender and the filling is golden brown.
6. Check for Doneness: Use a fork to check if the peaches are tender. They should be soft but not mushy.
7. Remove and Cool: Once baked, remove the peaches from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
8. Serve: Optionally, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
