TODAY'S RECIPE & NUTRITION TIP!  Brioche french toast with caramelised [sic] peaches from Delicious.com.au's 50 ways with peaches that are ripe for the picking. Is there a better way to start the day than with sweet peaches, buttery brioche and a dusting of fresh herbs? If you cannot find brioche at the market, check with one of our bakers to find the next best freshly baked bread or pastry to use. Find peaches at one of our two fruit and vegetable vendors.

Did you know? Peach Trees produce fruit for about 12 years. Yellow Peaches are high in Acid & low in sugar while white peaches are low in acid & high in sugar. Cling-stone peaches are early-season varieties and free-stone peaches are later in the season.  The "stone" is the pit. One small peach provides 51 calories, 1.2g of protein, 12.4g of carbohydrates, and 0.3g of fat. Peaches are an excellent source of vitamin C, fiber, and vitamin A. This nutrition information is provided by the USDA. Learn more by reading VeryWellFit.com's Peach Nutrition Facts and Health Benefits.
