- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

- To make the peaches: Preheat the oven to 400F (205C).
- In a medium bowl, stir together the peaches, brown sugar, ginger, and oil.
- Arrange the peaches on a baking sheet and roast until they are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Allow them to cool completely.
- To make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the pecans, graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and butter.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23-cm) springform pan.
- To make the compote: In a small saucepan, combine two-thirds of the blueberries with the sugar and 1/3 cup (75 ml) water.
- Simmer over medium heat until the berries burst, about 10 minutes.
- Add the remaining third of the blueberries and cook for 8 minutes more, until the compote coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely.
- To make the whipped cream and assemble: Spread half of the ice cream into the prepared crust, then layer on the cooled blueberry compote.
- Top the compote with the remaining ice cream and smooth the surface.
- Place in the freezer for 1 hour.
- In a chilled bowl, combine the cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
- Using a chilled whisk, whip by hand or with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
