Maple-Peach Ice Cream Topping

Description

This simple, quick peach sauce is great for ice cream but tastes equally good on french toast, waffles, or granola. To peel or not to peel, the choice is yours! I left the peel on as it helps to keep the peaches intact.

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ cup real maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg
