Ingredients:

4 large ripe peaches

4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

¼ cup firmly packed light brown sugar

¼ cup white rum or Amaretto

½ tsp. ground cinnamon

pinch ground nutmeg

Garnish: chopped Marcona almonds

Directions:
Rinse peaches and blot dry. Cut each in half and discard pits. Combine melted butter, brown sugar, rum, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Mix thoroughly until sugar dissolves, then set aside. Oil and preheat grill to high heat. Grill peaches until nicely browned, 3 - 4 minutes per side, basting with rum butter glaze. Serve at once, spooning any remaining glaze over the grilled peaches. Garnish with almonds, if desired.
