Fresh Peach Float

A lovely way to have fresh peaches. Please make each float according to your own taste-more or less peaches, sugar, soda, ice cream.

Ingredients (enough for two tall floats):

Cinnamon Sugar Pie Crust strips:
6 or so (1/2 inch wide by 2 inches long) strips of pre-made pie crust
2 teaspoons sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Peaches:
2 large or 3 small fresh peaches, pitted and chopped (peel them if you want, but I’m leaving the skin on)
2 Tablespoons (more or less) of sugar (depending on how sweet your peaches are)
To finish:
3-4 cups club soda
4 scoops vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lay the pie crust strips on a foiled baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Mix together the 2 teaspoons of sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture on the pie crust strips.  Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool and set aside.

Put the peaches and 2 Tablespoons of sugar in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Move the peach syrup to a container and chill for at least 30 minutes.

When you are ready to assemble your floats, divide the peaches evenly between 2 tall glasses. Add 2 cups of club soda to each and stir. Put 2 scoops of ice cream into each glass and garnish with a pie crust strip and serve the rest alongside of the float. .
