Preparation
Step 1
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a medium sized bowl, combine 1½ cups cherries, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, ¼ teaspoon of almond extract, a dash of cinnamon, a pinch of salt, 2 tablespoons honey, and ¼ tablespoon of lemon juice. Stir all of the ingredients together and combine.
To a food processor, add 4 cups whole wheat graham cracker (broken up slightly), 1 ripe banana, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Pulse the mixture until a dough has formed.
Remove from the food processor, and dust a parchment covered flat surface with the flour. Place another piece of parchment on top of the dough.
Roll out to ¼-inch thick. Remove one layer of parchment, and dust the top with slightly more flour. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into 32 strips.
Lace the strips of dough over the cherry filled peaches. Bake in a 350°F oven for 35 minutes.
To make the coconut whip cream, scoop off the top creamy layer of the chilled canned of coconut milk (about 1/4 of the can). Using a whisk or handheld blender, whip together the coconut milk with 1 tablespoon of honey and ¼ teaspoon almond extract.
Once done baking, allow the peaches to cool slightly. When you are ready to serve, top each peach with a dollop of the coconut whip cream.
