Just visited Fredericksburg in the Texas Hill Country and bought some great peaches. I was curious to try this recipe as I also love trying historical recipes. Just made this recipe tonight. This is a little different...very lemon forward, but for me, it works. The lemon works with the peaches. I dig it. If you are not fond of lemon you might want to reduce the amount of lemon extract by 1/2. I will leave it as is. Looking forward to my toast tomorrow morning.
