I'm not sure what went wrong, but my peaches didn't turn out well. They were too mushy and the sauce was too thin.

This recipe is a good starting point, but it needs some tweaking. I would experiment with different ingredients and cooking times to find the perfect combination.

I would recommend this recipe to others, but I would suggest making a few changes. For example, I would use less sugar and cook the peaches for less time.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The peaches were a bit mushy for my taste. I think I'll try cooking them for less time next time.

The peaches took longer to cook than the recipe said. I had to leave them in the slow cooker for an extra hour.

I had trouble finding amaretto at my local grocery store. I ended up using almond extract instead.

These peaches are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of amaretto, but I still enjoyed these peaches. The flavor was subtle and the peaches were still very tasty.
