Steps:
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. Place peaches in boiling water for 1 to 2 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon, and transfer to ice-water bath. Remove skin, and cut peaches in half. Remove and discard pits, and slice each half into 6 wedges.
- Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan; cover, and cook over medium-high heat until sugar is completely dissolved, 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover, reduce heat to medium low, and cook until sugar turns medium amber, about 15 minutes. While cooking, wipe down sides of pan several times with a pastry brush dipped in cold water to prevent crystals from forming.
- Working quickly, remove pan from heat, and stir in peach wedges with a wooden spoon. Return saucepan to heat, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are soft, about 5 minutes.
- Remove peaches and sugar syrup from heat, and let cool slightly. Transfer half the mixture to a medium bowl, and set aside. Transfer the other half to the bowl of a food processor, and puree until smooth, about 30 seconds.
- Add half the puree (about 3/4 cup) to the caramelized sliced peaches. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until the cake is served. Reserve the remaining puree to assemble the cake.
CARAMEL PEACH UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
Upside-down cakes are great for summer barbecues -- and the leftovers make for a fantastic breakfast. We loved this recipe when made with grits, but heard from viewers that their results were gritty. Not all grits are made equal! So we've clarified the recipe to call for white corn meal.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch cake pan, line bottom with parchment paper and brush the paper with butter.
- Caramel peaches: Combine the sugar, corn syrup, allspice and water in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to high, and continue to cook, without stirring, until the mixture becomes an amber caramel, about 5 minutes. Pour the caramel into the prepared pan and set aside to cool.
- Halve and pit the peaches, but leave their skins on. Cut each half into 3 wedges. Arrange the wedges in concentric circles in the pan. Set aside while you make the cake batter.
- Cake: Whisk the all-purpose flour, white corn flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Slowly mix the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a hand-held electric mixer. Increase the speed to high, and continue beating until the butter is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at time, waiting for each to be fully incorporated before adding the next.
- While mixing at a low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Increase the speed to medium and mix briefly to make a smooth batter. Pour the batter over the peaches and smooth over.
- Bake the cake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 to 45 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack, about 20 minutes.
- Run a knife around the edge of the pan to release the cake. Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate and remove the parchment paper. Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
- Serving suggestions: Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Steps:
- Combine the sugar and salt in a 3- to 3½-quart stainless steel saucepan and pour the water over them. Place the pan over medium to medium-high heat, stirring gently with a wooden spoon. As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, stop stirring.
- Cook the mixture for 5 to 6 minutes, gently swirling the pan to "stir" the caramel so it colors evenly. As soon as the mixture turns a medium amber color, remove the saucepan from the heat and add the cream all at once. Stir well, and don't be concerned if it clumps up at first; it will smooth out.
- Put the saucepan back over medium-low heat and boil, stirring virtually nonstop, until the caramel reaches 220 to 225°F (104 to 107°C) on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Cool briefly, then transfer to heatproof jars to store. Cool to room temperature before refrigerating. It will keep for at least several weeks. To reheat, microwave the jar in 5- to 10-second intervals, stirring in between, until pourable.

Steps:
- Make crust:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter in medium bowl until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom and 1 inch up sides of prepared pan. Bake until crust is set and pale golden, about 15 minutes. Cool completely.
- Make caramel sauce:
- Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high; boil without stirring until syrup is deep amber color, occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Gradually add cream (mixture will bubble vigorously). Stir over low heat until any caramel bits dissolve and sauce is smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in vanilla. Let stand until cool but still pourable, about 1 hour.
- Drizzle 1/4 cup cooled caramel sauce over bottom of crust. Freeze until caramel sets, about 10 minutes. Spread 1 quart ice cream over caramel in crust. Sprinkle chopped pecans over ice cream. Drizzle 1/2 cup caramel sauce over ice cream. Freeze until caramel sets, about 10 minutes. Spread remaining ice cream over. Freeze until top of pie is firm, about 1 hour.
- Arrange pecan halves in 3 concentric circles around top of pie. Drizzle 1/4 cup caramel sauce over pie. Freeze pie until frozen solid, at least 4 hours. (Can be prepared 5 days ahead. Cover tightly with foil; keep frozen. Cover and chill remaining caramel sauce.)
- Rewarm remaining caramel sauce over low heat, stirring often. Cut around pan sides to loosen pie. Let pie soften slightly at room temperature, about 10 minutes. Remove pan sides. Serve pie with warm caramel sauce.
