"A spectacular dessert adapted from my old Tassajara Cookbook from the 1970s. If you bake in a pie plate, make sure to use a DEEP one. In the summer, I love to take this along when a pie is requested; the custardy top makes it look extra-special and it's delicious, too (However, to make clear, this is basically a pie, not a pudding). Supposedly, you can substitute 2 packages frozen peaches for the fresh peaches, but I've never done this."

Step by Step Method

Bake 15 minutes at 400°F.
