Instructions
1
Halve the peaches and remove the stones, then arrange the four halves cut-side up across two serving bowls.
2
Squeeze the lemon juice evenly over the cut peach flesh to stop it browning while you prepare the cream.
3
In a cold bowl, whisk the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla extract using a hand mixer until it holds soft peaks, about 2 minutes.
4
Spoon or pipe the whipped cream generously into the hollow of each peach half.
5
Scatter the toasted chopped almonds over the cream.
6
Chill for 15 minutes before serving to let the flavours settle and the cream firm slightly.
