Method
-
step 1
Add the teabags, sugar, honey and 500ml water to a large saucepan. Set over a medium low heat and heat gently until the sugar and honey have dissolved, around 5 mins. Stir in the vanilla paste. Using a slotted spoon, lower the peaches into the water, cut side up. Increase the heat to medium and simmer gently for 4-6 mins then flip and cook for a further 4-6 mins until tender but not overly soft. If your peaches are very ripe, they will need less time, and if they’re harder, they may need a little more. Remove the cooked peaches from the pan and set aside in a large bowl.

step 2
Remove the teabags, then boil the syrup until it has reduced by half (this will take about 10 mins). Spoon over the peaches, then set aside to cool. Will keep covered and chilled for up to two days. Serve the peaches and syrup at room temperature, warm or chilled with spoonfuls of Greek yogurt.
Recipe tip
Any leftover poaching liquid can be used like cordial in sparkling water or mixed into cocktails.
