Author Notes: I created this recipe to showcase the beautiful flavor combination of the best of summer season fruits. I prefer to combine elements of sweet and savory for a modern culinary twist on the classics, while also being healthy, natural, and satisfying. I generally use local, organic and natural whole products as much as possible.

I usually serve this with goat cheese ice cream and a dash of balsalmic reduction.

Originally I made this dish as a Crisp, but it is versatile as a pie or tart as well.

I love your use of tomatoes with peaches! I often use mango with tomato, and I can imagine this would also be wonderful. I am working on a savory peach tart, as well.
