Wash, peel, half and core fruit, then place in a shallow pot. Fill teaC100 with water, select the Black Tea setting and press the power button. Once water reaches a boil, pour over the fruit into the pot. Add sugar, tea bags, and vanilla extract to the pot, then stir. Let sit for 5 minutes. Turn stove on to medium heat to bring to a simmer. Do not remove the tea bags. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until fruit is just tender. Let fruit cool in liquid and then serve at room temperature – enjoy by itself or spoon over vanilla ice cream.
