The “flower petal” appearance of this peachy dessert will delight your guests…then wait till they taste it!

Why try? This remarkable fresh peach tart is so easy to put together. It’s rich and sweet but better for you than most desserts.

Foodie Byte: To peel peaches; slice an X on the bottom of the peach and submerge in boiling water for a few seconds. Take out and let cool then easily peel off skin.
