My family loves this, even the pickiest eater. I use Harvest Spice peaches instead of regular sliced peaches and I don't refrigerate over night- no soggy bread as others have complained about.

Very dissapointed- Soggy bread, and clumps of cream cheese. Just blah. I added brown sugar and cinnamon to the top as suggested by others reviews. Just wasn't as delicious as expected.

I also don't understand why the recipe says to drain the peaches and use corn syrup. The juice in the peaches is usually thick (even the light ones) and it definitely has more flavor and just as much sweetness than corn syrup. Whenever I try recipes that call for draining the juice from fruit, but then call for extra water or other similar substances (ie corn syrup) I like to use the juice instead of just wasting it. It also saves on one less item i need to purchase if I don't have the one on hand (ie corn syrup).

The only reason I said I would make this again after I rated it one star is because I would like to try and see if I can improve it the second time around.... I made this for a treat for Easter morning for the group home I work at since most ladies are on a diet, I thought a splurge in calories would be a nice treat for breakfast and this sounded so good. I followed the directions exactly, but it was bland! It really didn't have much flavor like I thought it would and I was really disappointed that the cream cheese was still in chunks and not melted more thoroughly after an hour in the oven. I wish I had read and followed some of the advice others had made about pumpkin pie spice or sprinkling a little brown sugar and cinnamon over the top. I think next time I will put peaches in the center layer and blend the cream cheese into a smooth spreadable layer in the hopes it will melt better. I think I will also blend some peaches & peach juice up in the egg mixture too and hope that will give a better flavor through out the whole dish. Here's hoping for a better second time around!

I used peaches in syrup and saved 1/2 cup of the syrup to substitute for part of the milk in the egg mix. Very good! Imparted a bit of peachy flavor in the bread.

Recently made this this for a church Fellowship Guild meeting and was asked to make it again for the Easter Sunday Breakfast. It was enjoyed and savored by all.

I made this a few days ago and it was a big hit! I will probably uses smaller pieces of cream cheese next time or melt it and drizzle over the top. Also, I baked it a bit longer to really crisp up the bread. BIG HIT! Definitely share with friends and family!
