"Fresh ripe peaches are sooo good! This is great for a simple dessert with a scoop of ice cream. Enjoy! *Buttermilk substitute: 1/2 cup milk and 1 1/2 tsps lemon juice or white vinegar, stir together and allow to stand about 10 minutes. Almond Flour substitute: Grind 2/3 cup of blanched slivered or sliced almonds in a blender or food processor until ground to a very fine consistancy, almost powdery. Do not over blend or you'll end up with almond butter!"
