Slow Cooker Amaretto-Poached Peaches image

The slow cooker doesn't have to be for all-day projects. This simple dessert is easy to assemble right before a dinner party, and the tender, boozy peaches will be ready to serve by the time you're ready for dessert.

So easy and delicious! I didn't have any amaretto liqueur so I used almond extract instead and it worked great. Definitely a keeper recipe.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The peaches are always so tender and flavorful, and the sauce is delicious. I usually serve them over pound cake, but they're also great on their own.
