Ingredients
  • 30 ounces sliced cling peaches -- drained
  • Juice reserved -- divided
  • Cans
  • 4 cups Low-fat granola -- divided
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 8 ounces Fat-free cream cheese
Directions

    In a large bowl, combine 3 cups of the granola, 2 tablespoons of honey, and about 1/2 cup of the reserved peach juice.
  3. 3
    Press the granola mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch glass pie pan to form a crust.
  4. 4
    In a separate medium bowl, beat the fat-free cream cheese with an electric mixer until it is smooth and softened.
  5. 5
    Fold the diced peaches into the softened cream cheese until evenly distributed.
  6. 6
    Spread the cream cheese and peach mixture evenly over the prepared granola crust.
  7. 7
    Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the crust to set and the filling to chill.
  8. 8
    Before serving, arrange the remaining peach slices on top of the chilled filling.
  9. 9
    Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of granola over the top for added texture and crunch.
