Try it with nectarines, just as good.

Poached Fresh Peaches

 

1/4 cup apricot preserves

1 tsp. grated orange peel

3 tablespoons sugar

4 fresh ripe peaches, peeled, halved and pitted

 

In a medium saucepan, combine preserves, peel and sugar with 1/2 cup water.

Cook, stirring, over low heat, until mixture is like a syrup and falls in heavy

drop from the spoon-about 5 minutes. Add peaches to syrup. Simmer, uncovered,

about 10 minutes or until tender. Refrigerate several hours until well chilled

and serve with syrup.
