NECTARINE SYRUP TOPPING

1 1/2 cups water
3 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup fresh basil, finely shredded
1 cinnamon stick
8 fresh nectarines, pitted and quartered
1 tbsp lemon juice

Combine the water, sugar, basil, cinnamon stick and nectarines in a crockpot or slow cooker.  Place lid on cooker and cook on high 2 to 3 hours.  Remove the nectarines and set aside.  Remove the cinnamon stick and discard.  Let the syrup cool then strain.

Stir the lemon juice into the strained syrup, place nectarines back into the syrup.

This is a great topping for ice cream, pound cake, etc.
