A peach and cream pie makes an excellent dessert option during the warmer months of the year. The combination of sweet ripe peaches with creamy vanilla ice cream is just right on a hot day
The peaches should be peeled and cut into large wedges. Add the ingredients to a medium mixing bowl and top with sugar. Gently toss, then wrap in plastic. For one hour, leave at room temperature, stirring once or twice.
The peach juice is drained into a small saucepan. Discard the peaches. To the juice, add 1/4 cup water, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt. Cook the syrup over medium heat while whisking continuously until it boils. Cook over low heat until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the butter, lemon juice, and vanilla after taking the pan off the heat. Add the peaches and any remaining juice with a gentle fold.
Whipping cream should only be lightly whisked until slightly thickened.
Divide the peaches in halves and divide among 4 serving basins or glasses. Place half the cream on top.
