In a 2-quart sauce pan over medium-high heat, stir together peaches, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt.
When mixture begins to simmer, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-25 minutes or until the mixture thickens up.
Cool the filling to room temperature before storing in the fridge. If kept in a large jar with a lid or other airtight container, the peach filling will last for up to 1 week.
Notes
Reheating - To reheat, place in a saucepan over medium heat and stir occasionally until warmed through.
Add other fruits - Peaches are great for pairing with other fruits such as apples, cherries, blueberries, etc. It adds a great flavor profile to your already righteous dessert.
Can I Use Fresh Peaches? - Of course you can! I simply use frozen organic peaches because they come already sliced and ready to go. Plus, they last longer than fresh peaches since life can catch up sometimes.
