Place the open peach halves on a cutting board and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Set aside for 30 minutes.
4 Large Peaches, Cinnamon Sugar
Fill a pie dish or bowl with about 3/4 Cup Cinnamon Sugar, set aside.
Cinnamon Sugar
Whisk together the flour, milk, sugar, egg, baking powder and sea salt. The batter should end up nice and smooth. Set aside.
1 Cup Flour, 1 Cup Milk, 1 Tablespoon Sugar, 1 Large Egg, 3/4 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
Fill a large pot with peanut oil (if you have allergies use Canola, peanut just heats up hotter and doesn't burn as fast). Heat over medium high heat. Once the oil begins to pop and snap (drop a little water in or put a wooden spoon handle to the bottom to test it) you are ready to go.
Peanut Oil
Add each peach half to the batter and coat evenly. Quickly lift out and let drip a little, add to the hot oil. Fry for about 3 minutes (I swear my stove heats weird so keep an eye on these), turning occasionally, until lightly golden.
Immediately drop the peach in the reserved cinnamon sugar, turning to coat. Set into ice cream dishes, top with ice cream, whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and fresh berries. Die and go to heaven, it's that good.
