The peaches lend sweet, fruity flavour and the almonds supply a fantastic, textural counterpoint to the soft custard filling. The whole thing is held together by the ever-reliable Lo-Dough!

5. Pour in the custard mix over the peaches and put into the oven to bake for 35-40 minutes. The custard should be set, but still have a bit a wobble.
