Ingredients
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
1-2 large garlic cloves, finely minced
½ c. red onion, finely chopped (about ½ medium)
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
1 t. dried rosemary
1 t. ground cinnamon
1/8 – ¼ t. crushed red pepper flakes
2 T. fresh lemon juice
4 large rice peaches, diced (approximately 4 heaping cups)
3 T. maple syrup, preferably local
2 T. water
Instructions
-
Add olive oil, garlic, and red onion to a large saucepan set over medium heat. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine.
-
Add the rosemary, cinnamon, and crushed red pepper flakes to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and the spices become very fragrant, approximately 4-5 minutes.
-
Add the lemon juice, peaches, maple syrup, and water to the skillet and stir to combine. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a rapid boil. Immediately reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are soft and the mixture starts to thicken, approximately 10-12 minutes.
-
Remove from heat and cool for several minutes. Working in batches if necessary, transfer the warm peach mixture to a blender and quickly pulse for a few seconds just until blended, but not completely smooth.
-
Use immediately or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days. Enjoy!
