Vanilla Gelato with Peach Sauce

I had been looking at gelato recipes, again, and found a Vanilla Gelato that looked simple and tasty.

I did not have any cream, nor did I want to use heavy cream, so I just used whole milk.   The recipe used a vanilla bean which gave it a wonderful vanilla flavor.  I used 3 cups of milk, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 vanilla bean.   It takes a little time because you cook the vanilla bean in the milk, let that cool, chill in the refrigerator, then put it in the ice cream maker.   I only left mine cool for a few hours because I wanted to have it that evening, but even though it was a little soft, it was very good!

I had some peaches that I needed to use and I was looking for something good to go with the Vanilla Gelato.  The gelato mixture was chilling in the refrigerator and I was reading all kinds of peach recipes hoping to find something before dessert time.  I found this Peaches in Brown Sugar with Rum Sauce recipe that looked like it would be the perfect match to my gelato.  Butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, rum......yummy!
