Top with a prosciutto blanket, you know, a thin slice~

Place peaches on a foil lined baking sheet and pop in the oven at 400 for about 10-15 minutes, until hot and prosciutto has crisped.  You could also cook these on the grill on a piece of foil.  Cooking time will depend on grill temperature, just watch carefully until desired doneness
