Ingredients

PEACH LAYERS

3 lbs ripe peaches

grated rind & juice of 1 small lemon

3/4 cup white granulated sugar

BREAD LAYERS

6 Tablespoons butter, divided use

8 slices (about 5 x 31/2 inches each) country bread

(about 3/4 of a 1 pound loaf)

1 1/2 tablespoons sugar

TOPPING

1/3 cup flour

1/4 cup sugar

1 tablespoon dark brown sugar

FOIL TO LINE BOTTOM OF THE STOVE ( in case of bubbling over)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 pinch salt

4 tablespoons finely chopped almonds

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees F

PEACH LAYERS

Peal and cut them into approximately 1/4 inch wedges

Toss in bowl with lemon rind and juice and 3/4 cup sugar

BREAD LAYERS

Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet and lay in half the bread slices.

Brown lightly on one side, turn and brown the other side.

Repeat wit remaining butter and bread

When all are done, sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar

Line the bottom of an ungreased shallow baking dish(8x10in)

with half the bread slices; they should just cover the bottom

Spoon half the peaches and half their juices on top.

Repeat to make another layer of bread, peaches & juice

TOPPING

Toss together flour, sugar, brown sugar cinnamon & salt

Cut butter into small cubes and mix them with the dry ingredients, using your fingertips of a pastry cutter to incorporate the butter but not too much.

Leave small pieces of butter throughout .

Fold in the chopped almonds

Sprinkle topping over lasagna

Bake 50 minutes to 1 hour

Use shorter time if peaches were very ripe & juicy

The peaches should be tender, juices bubbling all around and the top nicely browned

If peaches seem done, but topping is still pale, place under the broiler for a minute or two

Serve warm & enjoy!!

Sounds tasty Jett I never made a fruit Lasagna before
Could you use home made Lasagna noodles flavored with cinnamon and sugar instead of the bread?
