Peaches in Basil-Peach Sauce

  • 8 medium Peaches
  • 1 cup sweet white wine
  • 1/3 cup torn fresh Basil
  • 1 to 2 tbsp sugar (optional)
  • fresh Basil leaves (optional)

Remove the pits from two of the unpeeled peaches; chop. Set remaining whole peaches aside.

In a medium saucepan, combine chopped peaches, wine, the torn basil, and sugar, if necessary, to sweeten. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 12 to 15 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened.

Remove and discard the torn basil. Pour peach mixture into blender or food processor; cover and blend or process until smooth.

Slice the remaining peaches; remove pits. Serve with peach sauce. If desired, garnish each serving with fresh basil leaves. Makes 4 servings.
