Notes
Prep the peaches the day before. Simply peel, pit, and dice, then place in a freezer bag and pop in the refrigerator or freezer overnight. In order to balance the peach and honey, try using a light flavored honey such as clover, otherwise, the honey might overpower any peach flavor. Are your peaches not peachy? Add a pinch of salt to the puree to bring out the flavor.
