Steps:
- Put the water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla pod into a wide saucepan and heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Bring the pan to the boil and let it bubble away for about 5 minutes, then turn the heat down to a fast simmer.
- Cut the peaches in half, and if the stones come out easily then remove them, if not then you can get them out later. Poach the peach halves in the sugar syrup for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Test the cut side with the sharp point of a knife to see if they are soft, and then remove them to a plate with a slotted spoon.
- When all the peaches are poached, peel off their skins and let them cool (then you can remove any remaining stones). If you are making them a day in advance then let the poaching syrup cool and then pour into a dish with the peaches. Otherwise just bag up the syrup and freeze it for the next time you poach peaches.
- To make the raspberry sauce, liquidize the raspberries, confectioners' sugar, and lemon juice in a blender or a food processor. Sieve to remove the pits and pour the puree into a jug.
- To assemble the Peach Melba, allow 2 peach halves per person and sit them on each plate alongside a scoop or 2 of ice cream. Spoon the raspberry sauce over each.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Onto a clean, dry work surface, place phyllo dough sheets. Cover with a damp towel (but not overly wet). Make sure there is an equal-sized clean, dry work space very close to the covered phyllo dough, as this will make assembly much easier.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Place one regular-sized 12-cup muffin pan nearby.
- Peel and slice peaches and place in a large bowl. Then add sugar, flour, 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Stir to combine thoroughly and set aside.
- Carefully take first phyllo sheet from the top of the stack and lay it onto the prepared clean, dry work surface. Re-cover the stack with the damp towel.
- Gently brush a light layer of butter onto the phyllo sheet and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture, top with another phyllo sheet and repeat until four sheets have been stacked and buttered.
- With a pastry cutter or pizza cutter, gently cut phyllo into six evenly-spaced squares.
- Carefully tuck phyllo squares into muffin cups. Spoon peach filling into the center of each (about 6 peach slices in each cup).
- Bake for 20-30 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Allow to cool for 20-30 minutes.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
