Cut the peaches in half.

In a saucepan over low heat, combine water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla.

Mix until the sugar dissolves, then turn the heat to medium-high to bring to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and place the peaches face down in the syrup for 2-3 minutes, flipping them halfway through.

After poaching, peel the skin off the peaches while they cool slightly.

To make the raspberry sauce, combine fresh raspberries, lemon juice, and powdered sugar in a bowl and mix.

Serve the warm peaches over vanilla ice cream and drizzle with raspberry sauce.
