Peaches Peaches Peaches

We love to share this wonderful fruit from our backyard tree. When I brought some peaches to my yoga class with Tiana Hill, Sarah offered to make pie!  She put pie crust only on the bottom and it was delicious.

I would also like to try substituting peaches in Apple Streusel Pie from page 163 in Tastes & Treasures cookbook.
