Ingredients

1/3 cup (or less) sugar

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

1 t. peeled, grated fresh ginger, or 1/2 t. ground ginger

2 T. water

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

1 T. Grape Nuts cereal

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, lemon juice, ginger, and water. Bring to a simmer.
  3. Place peaches cut side up in a shallow 1 quart baking dish. Pour ginger syrup over peachesand into holes.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until peaches are tender when pierced with a knife and syrup has thickened.
  5. Remove from oven, sprinkle on Grape-Nuts, and serve at room temperature. These are incredibly delicious and truly stand alone. For a special treat, try a dab of sorbet with them.

Note: If you do not have heart disease you can substitute toasted walnuts for the Grape-Nuts.
