The baking time depends on ripeness of the peaches. I usually halve the recipe. I prefer small local and seasonal purple plums. I sometimes substitute brown sugar with honey and maple syrup.
About 6 peaches, remove pits, cut in big wedges
About 10 purple plums, remove pits, halved
About ½ cup brown sugar
About 2 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice
Preheat oven to 400F.
In large ovenproof dish, toss peaches and plums with sugar and lemon juice. Bake in oven about 30 to 40 minutes or until softened and juicy but not mushy.
Serve warm with juices over ice cream or garnished with creme fraiche.
Makes about 8 servings.
