Peach & Kefir Custard Pie

A nod to my Georgia roots: an old-fashioned peaches and cream pie with a spin to make it grain-free and plant-based. Almond flour creates a sweet, crunchy crust, and kefir thickened with tapioca and arrowroot flour envelop fresh and delicious peaches to create this summertime pie.
