Instructions

Halve and pit the peaches and slice each half into 6 wedges; peel first if the skins are fuzzy or thick.
Whisk the honey, vanilla and lemon juice in a bowl and toss the peaches in it.
Let stand 10 minutes until glossy.
Fan the slices over the dessert just before serving.

Tips

Nectarines need no peeling and work the same way.
For a warm finish, sear the slices 1 minute per side in a dry pan before tossing.
