Ingredients
- 4 pieces Peach halves (fresh or canned, drained)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Plain Greek yogurt (or whipped cream)
- 1 tablespoons Honey (optional, for drizzling)
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the peach halves. If using fresh peaches, cut them in half and remove the pits.
Step 2
In a medium skillet, heat the butter over medium heat until melted.
Step 3
Add the peach halves, cut side down, and cook for 3 minutes, allowing them to caramelize slightly.
Step 4
Sprinkle the brown sugar over the peaches and drizzle in the vanilla extract. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, spooning the melted butter-sugar mixture over the tops of the peaches occasionally.
Step 5
Carefully remove the caramelized peaches from the skillet and set them aside to cool slightly.
Step 6
On each serving plate, dollop 2–3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt or whipped cream in the center. Spread it slightly to mimic the look of egg whites.
Step 7
Place a caramelized peach half (round side up) on top of the yogurt to resemble the 'yolk' of a sunny-side-up egg.
Step 8
Drizzle with honey for additional sweetness, if desired, and garnish with a fresh mint leaf.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy this whimsical and tasty treat!
