I was concerned about the amount of water on the peaches, so after adding the syrup I drained them (let sit for an hour) and collected the drained basil syrup and peach juices. Added lemon zest and juice, a little ginger, corn starch, and cooked until thickened. Came out great!
Wish I could add the picture!

I wonder if the other reviewers even tried this, because I did and it was disgusting. The basil to peach ratio is way too high, and it was so watery the crust turned to mush. The result was completely inedible, not even drowning it in vanilla ice cream could save it. I had to throw it away. So embarrassed that I wasted my time on this.

So appealing! Love this recipe. Especially the cornmeal in the crust. ;o)

I LOVE peaches & basil together. For the last few years I've been making a peach basil jam and it's to die for!

I make a similar syrup, Bellini basil syrup, use 1/2 Bellini mix and 1/2 water. Mixed with the sliced peaches, delicious on all sorts of things. I have a batch in the fridge waiting for the perfect ripe peaches.

Your tart looks delicious - I'll bet it would work with lemon thyme too...

Thanks, Lizthechef! I've never had peaches with lemon thyme, but it sounds wonderful!
