Baked Peaches

 
5 to 6 peaches
3 T brown sugar
3 T medium or heavy cream

Grease a deep 9-inch pie plate or baking dish. Cut peaches into thick slices and arrange them in the pan, letting them overlap slightly. Sprinkle brown sugar over peaches. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Drizzle the cream over the peaches and place the pan under the broiler for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges start to turn brown. Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt, if desired.

Hint: This wonderful and easy dessert is best when fresh peaches are at their peak and are almost overripe. To reduce calories, you can substitute milk for the cream. It will still be tasty but not as delectable as with cream.
