Notes
For a firmer crust, bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes, then cool completely before layering.Drain canned peaches very well to prevent a soggy crust.Use fresh whipped cream for a richer, homemade version.Try variations with strawberries, blueberries, or mangoes.Drizzle with caramel sauce for an extra indulgent touch.
