Directions
Combin the peaches, rice, a quarter cup of water, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in a saucepan. Put the pan over low heat and let everything simmer gently until the peaches soften, which usually takes about 3 to 5 minutes. Once the fruit has started to wilt, stir in the butter until it melts and blends in nicely. When you're ready to serve, sprinkle a little cinnamon and nutmeg on top for that warm, cozy flavor. Enjoy!
