Made this last night for Spring 2007 PAC. It went together quickly and the 2 hour soak time was plenty of time for the bread to absorb the egg mixture. I used frozen peaches as there aren't any good fresh ones ready here yet. NEXT TIME, I will add more sugar to the peaches as mine weren't sweet enough for our tastes. Mark too the remainder of the pan to work with him this morning and called to declare that the pan had been licked clean within 15 minutes. Thanks Ree' for another great addition to my recipe file.
