Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a 9 - 10 inch oven-safe skillet, melt sugar over medium heat until it turns amber. Add butter carefully and stir until smooth. Remove from heat.
Arrange the peach cut-side up tightly over the caramel. Drizzle with lemon juice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
Place puff pastry over the peaches, tucking edges down around the fruit inside the pan. Prick pastry lightly with a fork.
Bake for 30 minutes, until pastry is deep golden and caramel is bubbling.
Cool for 5 minutes, then carefully invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm.

Buttery, flaky pastry
Soft, jammy peaches
Rich caramel sauce coating every bite

Storage:
I store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days (though it rarely lasts that long).

Reheat:
Warm in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.

Freezing:
Not recommended — caramel doesn’t thaw back with the same silky texture.
